Chief Minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy’s wife, who looks after his media house and other business organisations, is said to be pushed into YSRCP election campaign this time. Though in earlier occasions, she took part in some election related activities, but never participated on her own. She used to accompany her mother-in-law YS Vijayamma.
This time, YS Jagan seems to be feeling lonely in his home district Kadapa, as his own sister and APCC President YS Sharmila is aggressively campaigning against his government and she is being accompanied by cousin sister Dr Sunitha. But, hardly any family member is seen campaigning for YS Jagan.
Moreover, both the sister cornering chief minister accusing of protecting the killers of uncle and former minister YS Vivekananda Reddy. More than that, they are objecting for fielding `a murdered’ tKadapa sitting MP YS Avinash Reddy, who is contesting again, even after CBI named him as accused.
In recent times Bharati was first seen in political activity two days ago, when greeted her husband, who was on Bus Yatra in Tadepalli junction. She greeted the audience, as a mark of her solidarity and Jagan also responded to her greeting.This video is now being viral in social media.
On the other hand, on April 22, YCP chief YS Jagan will file his nomination as the Pulivendula assembly candidate. It is reported that his wife YS Bharathi will also conduct a door-to-door campaign in support of her husband in their home constituency. This will be her first appearance with the public coming on her own as part of an election campaign.
As there is not a single person from the YS family campaigning in support of YS Jagan in this election, YCP sources are expecting that the Bharati campaign will fill up that lacuna. Her presence also felt to be a response to the aggressive campaign of Sharmila and Sunitha against Japan’s Politics of murder’.
However, ruling party leaders are in a dilemma as to how far Bharati will match to Sharmila and Sunitha at the field, as both of them have already proved their energies in giving a tough fight to the political opponents at the field level.
Sharmila also gained some sympathies among YCP hard-core cadres due to her intensive campaign for the party during previous elections, that too during the period Jagan was in jail.
