YSR Congress members concerned and angry about Sharmila as she generates excitement for Congress in Andhra Pradesh

Y S Sharmila has taken over the reins of the Congress party in Andhra Pradesh and has started her tour of districts. She is criticizing her brother, Jagan, and blaming him for dividing the party. People are wondering what will happen if Jagan launches an attack against her, accusing her of seeking political positions and benefits from him. The reasons for her exit from the YSR Congress and entry into Telangana politics remain unknown. Some members of her former party have questioned her use of her late father’s surname and accused her of causing heartache to him. The war between the YSR Congress and Sharmila is now open. She is gathering support from those who have not won any elections in the past 10 years and the Congress might accommodate disgruntled members of other parties. Some loyalists of the late YSR and senior Congress leaders have criticized Sharmila’s comments against her brother. The YSR Congress leaders and cadres are also not happy with her remarks and are expressing their anger towards her. They believe she is playing into the hands of their political enemies.
