India celebrated Independence Day on the 15th of this month with traditional festivities, including the Governor of Andhra Pradesh hosting an “At Home” event at his residence. This event featured flag hoisting, a parade, and high tea, and is a customary celebration on both Independence Day and Republic Day. Despite receiving an invitation, Jagan Mohan Reddy, the leader of the Yuvajana Sramik

Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, leader of the Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress (YCP), is set to give a significant boost to his wife YS Bharati's political career. With his mother YS Vijayamma and sister YS Sharmila distancing themselves from the party due to property disputes, Jagan is considering making Bharati a prominent figure in the YCP. This move aims to fill the leadership void and strengthen the party's appeal, particularly among women voters. In previous election cycles, Vi

RRR's Bold Claim: Last week, TDP MLA Raghu Rama Krishna Raju (RRR) made a provocative statement regarding the real estate markets of Hyderabad and Amaravati. He suggested that with the political resurgence of Chandrababu Naidu in Andhra Pradesh, Amaravati's real estate sector is experiencing a significant boom, while Hyderabad is witnessing a 10-15% decline in its market appeal. This assertion quickly gained traction on social media, sparking a wide-rang

Power has a profound impact on the lives of politicians, a fact vividly illustrated by recent events involving former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy. During his tenure as CM, Jagan enjoyed the luxury of flying in private jets, a privilege that facilitated his personal and professional travel with utmost convenience. This exclusive air travel arrangement underscored the distinction and ease afforded by political power. However, the recent electoral loss has brough

It has been six months since Revanth Reddy took charge as the CM of Telangana and he has now started the drive to redesign Telangana emblem and also compose an exclusive song for Telangana. Coming to the Telangana oriented song, it has been titled Jaya Jaya He and it is to be composed by MM Keeravani. But this hasn't sat well with BRS leader RS Praveen Kumar and he asked Revanth Reddy to go to AP if he wants to continue AP-born Keeravani to compose Telangana's song.

The ruling party YSR Congress is overwhelmingly confident about the electoral mandate in Andhra Pradesh, to the extent that Jagan confidently announced he would take charge as the CM for the second time from Vizag. YV Subba Reddy has taken another step forward and said Jagan will take charge as the CM at 9:35 AM on 9th June. These overtly confident comments from the ruling party were ridiculed by the Telugu Desam outfit today as Raghu Rama Krishna Raju and Ganta Srinivas briefed the

CM Jagan Mohan Reddy has completely disregarded Prashant Kishor, the man who led his poll campaign in 2019 and played a significant role in the humongous win. Jagan visited the I-PAC office today and remarked that Prashant Kishor is mere nothing and it is the I-PAC team that does all the hard work. Jagan noted that the verdict in 2024 will be much more in favor of YCP than in 2019. He said the party would exceed the 151 MLA and 22 MPs tally.  The YSR Congress presiden

YS Jagan Mohan Reddy's YSR Congress is an unassailable force in the Rayalaseema region. This can be understood if we look at the fact that the party won 49 out of the 52 assembly segments in the Seema region in the 2019 election. YCP outrightly dominated TDP here.  But come 2024, the equation has changed almost completely. On one side, there is the anti-incumbency factor and on the other, there is the Sharmila factor. Sharmila, who was extremely determined to eat into the v

Now that the Andhra Pradesh elections are wrapped up, here’s a look at the initial reactions of sitting CM Jagan Mohan Reddy and opposition leader Chandrababu Naidu.  “I would like to thank my grandparents, my sisters, my brothers and sisters, my farmers, my SC, my ST, my BC, my minorities and all my youth who came like a tsunami to bless me in yesterday's elections. Heartfelt thanks to all my workers who worked hard for our @YSRCParty victory. I assur

Andhra Pradesh’s chief minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy is done with the polling process in the state as AP has seen nearly 81% polling which is slightly more than2019 tally.  Coming to the point, CM Jagan has now started a personal endeavour as he has scheduled a foreign tour along with his family members.  Jagan Mohan Reddy has been permitted to travel abroad by the CBI court in Hyderabad.  CBI court in Nampally,  Hyderabad grants permiss

Andhra Pradesh CM YS Jagan Mohan Reddy is usually a very confident and composed man. But that isn't even remotely the case if we look at the latest public speech delivered by the YCP chief.  In his latest public meeting today, Jagan Mohan Reddy said he has lost hope that the elections are being held in a fair and square manner as he suspected the opposition leader Chandrababu Naidu. "The belief that elections will be held properly in AP is eroding day by day.

The rivalry between Jagan and his sister Sharmila is the last thing that AP people expected after seeing Sharmila put in her tireless efforts for Jagan's win in the 2019 election. But the situation now is such that Sharmila and Jagan are unable to bear the sight of each other.  It appears to be that Jagan himself is unable to comprehend the nature of the relationship he is having with Sharmila amidst the changed circumstances.  Recently, Jagan publicly commen

It is known that Chandrababu Naidu was infamously arrested by the AP CID while the YS Jagan led YSR Congress government was in power and finally after all this while, Jagan has spoken about this in front of the media. "Cases against me were forged by Chandrababu Naidu & Congress. These parties considered me a political threat” Jagan said about the CBI and ED cases against himself. About the cases on Chandrababu, Jagan said “Chandrababu Naidu has done s

Andhra Pradesh chief minister and the only male descendant of late CM YS Rajasekhar Reddy, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy made a very interesting comment while speaking about his sister Sharmila.  Jagan remarked that Sharmila is more influenced by Chandrababu Naidu than himself and called this a highly unfortunate development in the context of YS family politics.  "I advised my sisters Sharmila and Sunitha to look after businesses and have their own ways and I even pr

The Undi assembly segment in the Godavari districts has garnered a lot of attention of late with the constituency having Raghu Rama Krishna Raju, a former YCP MP in contention.  As the election heat continues in Undi, there’s a lot of uncertainty on whether Raghu Rama will continue TDP’s domination in the constituency or if Jagan will successfully defeat the firebrand politician.  Undi stands as one of the strongest fortresses for the TDP, having been

For the first time, AP CM Jagan Mohan Reddy has spoken in bad light about the chief minister of Telangana Revanth Reddy as he interacted with a national media outlet today.  Jagan suspected that Revanth Reddy and Chandrababu Naidu are behind the political stints of YS Sharmila in Andhra Pradesh.  “My strong point is that Revanth Reddy and Chandrababu are behind the political deviation of my sister Sharmila. They’re pushing her against me.” Jagan

The elections season has set in in Andhra Pradesh as the state is heading for the assembly and parliamentary elections in the next three weeks or so. As the state head for the election, the affidavits that are being filed by the candidates are makin for an interesting reading.  Coming to the point, he

Andhra Pradesh chief minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has filed his nomination from the Pulivendula assembly constituency and as a part of the same, he has declared his affidavit.  As per the declared affidavit, Jagan and his family own assets worth Rs 757 crore that include movable assets worth Rs 650 crore immovable assets worth Rs 107 crore. In 2019 his and family’s assets were Rs 510 crore which means there is a 48% spike in the value of the assets.  Jagan

The general elections season is here in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. In this context of the coming election, a lot is being said about the affidavits that are being filed by the candidates and the assets they are declaring. Coming to the topic, we are discussing about the richest MP candidate who is in contention from Telangana. The man in question here is Konda Vishweshwar Reddy.

Back in 2020, a CBI investigation was commissioned on derogatory social media posts and abuses on the judicial system, the High Court of Andhra Pradesh, and bench judges. Several YSR Congress activists and cadres came under the CBI's radar in the case and one of the main culprits, the designated A2 in the case, Mani Annapureddy has been on the run.  After the first round of investigation, CBI identified that Mani has moved out of India and was stationed in the USA and menti
