The Lok Sabha also stands for the term of the lower house between consecutive parliamentary general elections in India. and assembly elections. The election commission passed the order in this regard on Friday, after the PRP leaders made a representation seeking the change of symbol. The party felt that the resemblance between the rail engine and the road roller, allotted to other candidates, had done the party in. The results of the Lok Sabha and assembly elections in May left the PRP highly disappointed as it won only 18 assembly seats forcing the party president Chiranjeevi to change the symbol. There was a strong feeling in the party that apart from causing the confusion among the people, the rail engine was also not auspicious. The 11-month-old PRP was recognised as a state party by the election commission after the polls, as it polled more than 15% of popular votes. It had suggested a cart wheel and two leaves as other alternative symbols in its petition to the Election Commission. How successful and winnable the new symbol would be for the PRP will be known very soon when it goes into the fray for the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation is the urban planning agency that oversees Hyderabad, the capital and largest city in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh.
