Junior NTR's sister N Suhasini is the TDP candidate in Kukatpalle Assembly constituency here.
Counting of votes would be taken up on December 11.
Assembly polls in Telangana were originally scheduled to be held simultaneously with the Lok Sabha polls next year.
However, the Legislative Assembly was dissolved prematurely on September six following a recommendation made by the TRS government.
