The whirlwind campaign of party President Sonia Gandhi, AICC leader and state in-charge Ghulam Nabi Azad's strategy, successful bus yatra which galvanised the support of the people and anti-incumbancy wave were some of the factors which helped the party to perform well at the hustings, he said.

When asked if the Jaitra Yatra undertaken by former CLP leader Dr YS Rajasekhar Reddy, seen as probable chief ministerial candidate, had any impact, Rao said "yes, it was also one of the factors for party's good performance".

Indirectly referring to free power supply promise to farmers, he said the party somehow has to fulfill promises. "We released the manifesto after threadbare discussion on every issue and we know our physical management," he added.
