Launching a broadside against her brother Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) president Y.S. Sharmila said God was witness to the “atrocities” committed against her by the former.
Delivering a highly charged speech at the Congress party’s first election meeting on Monday, Ms. Sharmila accused Mr. Jagan of orchestrating a “character assassination campaign” against her and her husband.
Addressing the ‘Nyaya Sadhana Sabha’, Ms. Sharmila said that Mr. Jagan did not even have an iota of gratitude for her despite all that she had done for him in the past. “I had embarked on a 3,200-km padayatra for his party, and took up a vociferous campaign against the Telugu Desam Party. However, when I was agitating in Vijayawada, Jagan used the police force to detain me and injure me physically,” Ms. Sharmila alleged.
