Rao had founded Telangana Rashtra Samithi in April 2001, with a single-point agenda of creating a separate Telangana state with Hyderabad as its capital. His party stormed into power in 2014 and Rao became the first Chief Minister of Telangana.

Twenty-one years after its formation, the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) has officially transformed into Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS).

Rao has been nursing national ambitions since 2018 to provide alternative for both the BJP and the Congress.

He has been meeting several regional leaders and chief ministers including his Bihar counterpart and JD(U) leader Nitish Kumar, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and DMK supremo MK Stalin and several others to forge a united front of opposition parties.
