K Chandrasekhar Rao popularly known as KCR announced the names at a news conference at TRS headquarters -Telangana Bhavan. He said only two sitting candidates were denied tickets and candidates for the remaining 14 constituencies will be announced soon.

Congress is the principal opposition party in the state and KCR earlier termed Rahul Gandhi the ‘biggest buffoon’ in the country.
