It was in the regime of Congress that Telangana came into existence. It was Chandrasekhar Rao who fought for the statehood by going on a hunger strike in 2009 and got the credit in 2014 when people trusted his party to work for the benefit of the state. In 2014 Congress had lost elections badly, bagging only 21 seats out of 119.
