MLA Sangareddy, while responding to YSRTP chief YS Sharmila stated that her Paadayatra is simply intended to malign YSR. Over the weekend, Sharmila's Paadyatra made it to Jagga Reddy's Assembly constituency, where she criticised him for so easily switching parties. Reddy, however, determined that this is a BJP strategy. She has also questioned him on his meddling in her political endeavours. YSRTP chief Y.S. Sharmila received harsh criticism from PCC President Jagga Reddy for picking on him. He claimed that Sharmila is uninformed about politics while speaking to reporters in Hyderabad on Monday. Even if we receive criticism from the daughter of the late Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy, he vowed, 'We would not remain silent.' According to Jagga Reddy, even Jagan and YS Sharmila are the 'BJP's Baanam(arrow).' He further claimed that Jagan and Sharmila were carrying out BJP directives and that the goal was to divide the votes of Andhra settlers in Telangana.
