Y.V. Subba Reddy remarked yesterday, saying, “If Sharmila’s claim of a share in Jagan’s assets were true, the ED would have already filed cases against her.” In response, Sharmila reacted sharply, accusing Subba Reddy of questioning whether names alone warrant property shares. She pointed out that she named her son after Y.S. Rajasekhar Reddy’s father, Raja Reddy.
Sharmila questioned, “If the assets are mine, should I go to jail too? And if the assets belong to Bharati, should she go to jail?” She went on to say that it would have been better if Subba Reddy had thought more carefully before making such statements. “Disputes may arise in every family, but has anyone dragged their own mother to court? Is taking one’s mother to court a common family dispute?” Sharmila asked, criticizing Jagan’s actions.
She added, “My mother and I endured a lot for Jagan’s benefit. I undertook padayatras in two elections for him, once walking as far as 3,200 kilometers. I ask the YSRCP cadre, what mistake did I make?”
Reflecting further, Sharmila questioned, “I went through so much for Jagan… but what has he done for me? I held onto MoU documents related to the assets for five years but never used them, despite the challenges. I never spoke ill of the YS family. Who is responsible for dragging Vijayamma to court? Isn’t it outrageous that her own son did this? My mother now wonders if she’s alive just to witness this sorrow.”
She concluded with a strong message to the YSRCP members, “If Jagan thinks someone is beneficial, he will use them. If not, he will crush them. The YSRCP cadre should decide if he is their leader or just a tyrant.”
