YSRC boss Jaganmohan Reddy will have to set state finances in order before working on his other priorities
For Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress (YSRC) president Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy, 46, it has been a long and arduous road to power. After launching the party in March 2011—when the Congress did not allow him to succeed his father Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy as chief minister—Jagan, as he is popularly known, has worked hard to emerge as the principal challenger to the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) in Andhra Pradesh.
Peeved by the Congress’s blunt refusal and hounded by financial misdemeanour cases (31 criminal cases, including seven under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act; 11 under the Prevention of Corruption Act are pending), Jagan quit the Grand Old Party. What worked for him was the Congress’s ill-timed decision to reorganise Andhra Pradesh and announce Telangana as the 29th state of the country. It propelled the YSRC into becoming the alternative in Andhra, eclipsing the Congress in the state.
