Vijayamma or Sharmila? Jagan in dilemma!
X
We are aware of the sudden demise of Shoba Nagireddy due to the car mishap that took place just few days before the polling of 2014 Elections. Election Commission made it clear that a by-election will be held in Allagadda Assembly constituency if votes polled for Shoba were higher than her opponents. With the former MLA winning in the general elections, A by-poll is certain to happen in the next 6 Months.

Apparently, Jagan is now in a dilemma whether to field his mother YS Vijayamma or sister Sharmila as YSRC candidate in Allagadda by-poll. A section of party leaders were against Vijayamma contesting from Allagadda as she was defeated in Vizag with a huge majority. Although majority of the leaders in the party have been in favour of Sharmila, Jagan isn't interested as he neither wants his sister to grow as a power centre in the party nor dominate him.

Political Analysts say, YSR Congress needs a strong leader who could lead the party in case if Jagan was sent behind the bars yet again in connection with the illegal assets case. Only Sharmila is capable of fulfilling the responsibility in such tough situation, So Jagan has got no better option at present to save the party.
