YS Sharmila needs no introduction. She is the daughter of former CM late YS Rajasekhar Reddy and she is the sister of incumbent CM YS Jagan Mohan Reddy. However, Sharmila has taken an independent path for her political career and even established her own political outfit YSR Telangana party. She even did a long padayatra in Telangana and fought against former CM KCR and the BRS. While she was supposed to contest the Telangana Assembly elections, she had gently avoided the contest in support of the Congress party. The Congress emerged victorious and outpowered KCR.
Since then, there have been strong speculations that YS Sharmila would merge her party into the Congress and she would join the Congress. Now, it is mostly confirmed that Sharmila will be heading the Congress party in AP. It is learnt that she will be made AP Congress president and the key announcement is going to be made today.
Meanwhile, Mangalagiri MLA Alla Ramakrishna Reddy, who is a strong loyalist to the YSR family and recently quit the YSRCP and his MLA seat, is most likely to join Congress along with YS Sharmila. This move is expected to shake the AP politics. Political analysts expect this could turn a headache for CM YS Jagan and his YSRCP in the coming elections. Already, TDP and Jana Sena have announced their alliance in the coming general elections.
