TV5 and ABN-Andhrajyothy are in the fourth and fifth positions respectively.
YS Jagan Mohan Reddy-owned Sakshi Channel is in the Sixth Position.
The Channel got a minor spike in its Ratings during the election season but nosedived quickly afterward. It has been consistently clocked with less than 20 ratings after the elections.
In Hyderabad, T News in the third position ahead of ABN and TV5 is a surprise and also a big improvement.
In the AP and TS segments as well, T News is doing reasonably well and is ahead of ETV AP, 10TV, and ETV Telangana.
It is known that T News is owned by the BRS Party and is the mouthpiece of the Opposition party.
We will have to observe the ratings in the coming days if this could be a consistent trend. If it is, BRS will take it as a positive ahead of the GHMC elections whenever they happen.
