K Kavitha, the leader of the Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS), was seen fainting during an electoral campaign in Telangana’s Itikyal on Saturday.
The incident occurred while Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao’s daughter was standing inside the open top vehicle with a BRS worker speaking into a microphone. Kavitha suddenly turns around and appears to fall down.
Those who were standing with her inside the vehicle gathered around Kavitha on the vehicle floor.

Kavitha later posted a video of herself sitting on a bed inside a house, chatting to a girl.
Sorry for the little scare. I’m doing just well, also happened to have met this sweet little girl and after spending time with her I’m feeling a little more energetic. #KCROnceAgain campaign to resume shortly. ✊🏻 pic.twitter.com/YaO1Siw7Vk
