"It is very clear that Andhra Pradesh is witnessing a silent revolution to dislodge the TDP government. Common man is vexed with its misrule and wants a change," a beaming former Legislature Party leader YS Rajasekhar Reddy, widely seen as Congress' chief ministerial candidate, said as early trends indicated a landslide victory for his party.

Asked about the raging Telangana statehood issue, he said "his party's government would strive to resolve the issue in co-operation with its ally Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS).

Ducking questions over who will become the Chief Minister in the event of Congress securing a majority, Reddy said "our party legislators are clever enough to choose their leader with the blessings of the High Command."
