As expected, the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) has fielded former IPS officer R.S. Praveen Kumar from Nagarkurnool Lok Sabha Constituency after he joined the party. He joined BRS after quitting Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), of which he was the State president, over the alleged pressure tactics from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leadership on BSP to end the Lok Sabha poll alliance with BRS.

The party leadership has named former IAS officer and MLC P. Venkatarami Reddy as its candidate for Medak Parliamentary Constituency on Friday. With this, the BRS has named 13 candidates for the Lok Sabha elections so far.
