YSR Congress is in a shambolic condition now in view of the relentless attack from YS Sharmila. As a part of the defense mechanism, the party is resorting to corrective measures in a bid to save Jagan from the first-hand embarrassment of facing such allegations from his own sister.
In one such attempt, Vijayasai Reddy sat in front of the media today as he tried to paint a different image of Jagan Mohan Reddy which looked more like a face-saving act.
Vijayasai Reddy noted that Jagan’s “Athi Manchithanam” (overtly positive approach) is the root cause of all the bad publicity that he has been getting. He implied that Jagan, by nature is an extremely good man and doesn’t have bad intentions on anyone, which is one of the reasons why he is misunderstood and exploited by people like Sharmila.
Notably, this face-saving act from Vijayasai is not the first such attempt either. Couple of days ago, Sakshi also reported an elaborate article on Jagan being an “Athi Manchivadu”. This report claimed that Jagan gave all the rightful properties to Sharmila already and there’s nothing left to be done from his side. This was published the very next day the confidential letter from Jagan to Sharmila surfaced on social media.
While Sharmila is claiming that she and her mother Vijayamma are going through hell for all that Jagan’s been doing, Vijayasai and Sakshi coming out and claiming that Jagan is “Athi Manchivadu” is looking incoherent.
Needless to say, the public perception is also such that Jagan is dragging his mother and sister to court over property disputes, and at this time, Vijayasai painting Jagan as an overtly good man doesn’t quite fit in.
