Jai Jagan!

Yeduguri Sandinti Jaganmohan Reddy (Telugu: యెడుగూరి సందిటి జగన్మోహన రెడ్డి)(born December 21, 1972),[1] also called Jagan by his admirers,is an Indian politician and was a member of the Parliament of India from Kadapa constituency. He is the son of the former Andhra Pradesh chief minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ("YSR"). Jaganmohan Reddy received his early education from Pulivendula and Hyderabad Public School later obtained his degree in Business Administration from London[citation needed].
Reddy founded the daily Telugu language newspaper Sakshi and the television channel Sakshi TV.[2] YS Jagan is the chief promoter of Bharathi Cements.[3]
[edit] Political life

Reddy started his political career by campaigning for Congress party in 2004 elections in Kadapa District, and in 2009, he was elected as member of Parliament from Kadapa constituency.

However, Jagan's political career took a new innings with the demise of his father, Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ("YSR"). His relationship with the Indian National Congress (INC) continuously deteriorated after his father's death[4]
[edit] Odarpu Yatra

Six months after his father's death, Reddy began a Odarpu Yatra (condolence tour) as promised earlier to go and meet the families of those who either allegedly committed suicide or died of shock after hearing the death of his father Y S Rajasekhara Reddy in a chopper crash in the thick Nallamalai forests in Kurnool district on September 2, 2009.The Congress party's central leadership directed Jagan to call off his odarpu yatra which he defied leading to a fallout between the high command and himself and further went ahead with the yatra stating that its personal and has got nothing to do with politics. His "Odarpu Yatra" is so far a big success and established Jagan as a big political leader in AP politics.[5] Reddy announced on 7 December 2010 that he would be continuing 'Odarpu Yatra' from 16 December 2010 in Kadapa district itself across all the assembly segments in the district. Later he would be moving on to the rest of the districts.
[edit] Criticism of Sonia Gandhi and subsequent resignation

On November 29, 2010, he resigned, after a fallout with the party high command.[6]

Reddy announced on 7 December 2010 from Pulivendula that he would be starting a new party within 45 days. He stated that the political battle in 2014 elections would be between his new party, Telugu Desam Party and Praja Rajyam Party but not with Congress
