Anil Clarifies Rift Between YS Jagan and YS Sharmila: ‘It’s Not About Property’

Anil, husband of YS Sharmila, has stated that the conflict between former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy and his sister Sharmila stems from political differences rather than property disputes. In a recent interview, Anil highlighted that Sharmila would have launched her party in Andhra Pradesh, not Telangana, if it were about assets. He emphasized that the widely-known truth is that assets were not shared with Sharmila, and that after 2019, Jagan’s behavior toward her shifted, a change that she found difficult to accept.

Anil disclosed that Jagan allegedly attempted to block Sharmila’s political activities in Telangana, deterring supporters from joining or aiding her. Despite this, Sharmila refrained from publicly criticizing her brother, said Anil, noting that her opposition to KCR in Telangana politics remains steadfast. Political strategist Prashant Kishor, Anil revealed, had advised Sharmila to establish her party in Telangana post-2019. Sharmila deferred to Jagan’s judgment, but he allegedly declined the idea, citing KCR’s strong presence in Telangana and potential complications with family assets.

Anil underscored that Sharmila’s commitment to her family is unwavering. “She undertook her padayatra* because of her love for her brother,” he said. Additionally, he alleged that during her travels, certain individuals approached Jagan, hinting that Sharmila’s growing influence could be problematic—a claim he says sparked insecurity within the family.

Anil criticized Jagan’s handling of family assets, particularly in light of ongoing ED cases. He questioned why Jagan, who has access to the properties, has not extended similar benefits to Sharmila. According to Anil, the family properties were intended for all of YS Rajasekhara Reddy’s children and their descendants, raising concerns over Jagan’s decision to label them as “loans” rather than shared assets.

Anil further revealed that Vijayamma, mother of Jagan and Sharmila, attempted to mediate the family’s disputes but left the country when reconciliation efforts failed. Anil alleged that Jagan, fixated on maintaining his Assembly seat count of 151—his “divine number”—was unwilling to compromise. He claimed that promises made to religious groups during elections remain unfulfilled and that Jagan, wary of BJP’s attention, asked Sharmila to reduce her public engagements, compounding their family’s divisions.
