Sharmila gives sharp counter to YSRCP fan shouting ‘Jai Jagan’ during A.P. Nyaya Yatra

Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) president Y.S. Sharmila Reddy effectively countered a YSRCP supporter who greeted her with ‘Jai Jagan’ slogans during her ‘A.P. Nyaya Yatra’ campaign for the Kadapa Lok Sabha seat at Duvvur in Mydukur assembly segment on Monday.

One man repeatedly shouted the ‘Jai Jagan’ slogan, obstructing her speech. Visibly irked, Ms. Sharmila called him up on to the stage and asked her to list out the achievements of the present YSRCP government, if any, before the public.

After the young man recalled Jagan’s jail episode and the padayatra and the welfare schemes rolled out by the YSRCP, Ms. Sharmila recalled that it was she who had vociferously made the ‘Jai Jagan’ slogans during her 3,200-km long padayatra when Jagan was in the jail.
