Vijayamma Targeted By Sakshi Media: Jagan’s Family Dispute

Family Feud Goes Public: Jagan vs. Vijayamma and Sharmila

Former CM YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has seen tensions rise within his own family. Known for his combative approach in politics, Jagan is now facing opposition not just from political opponents but also from his own mother, Vijayamma, and sister, Sharmila. The family conflict, centered on asset distribution, has taken an open and public turn with Vijayamma’s recent letter accusing Jagan of unfairly sidelining Sharmila in property matters.

Vijayamma’s Open Letter: Exposing Allegations Against Jagan

In an unprecedented move, Vijayamma addressed a public letter highlighting Jagan’s alleged foul play in the family’s asset distribution. She claims that Jagan has used his influence to manipulate the division of assets in a way that disregards Sharmila’s rightful share. Her letter has stirred Jagan’s media circles, especially Sakshi, the news outlet closely tied to his political image.

Sakshi’s Swift Retaliation: “Vichakshana Vismarinchina Vijayamma”

Within hours of Vijayamma’s letter, Sakshi Media, often referred to as Jagan’s media arm, published a sharply worded report under the headline, “Vichakshana Vismarinchina Vijayamma” (“Vijayamma Has Lost Her Conscience”). This report portrayed Vijayamma as reckless, suggesting that she went against legal advice to secure Sharmila’s position in the family-run Saraswati Power Company. Sakshi contends that Vijayamma’s support for Sharmila risks legal complications for Jagan, thus casting her as the antagonist in the unfolding family dispute.

A New Narrative: Sakshi’s Stance Against YSR’s Widow

The media’s shift is a notable move, as Sakshi was originally founded during the tenure of YS Rajasekhar Reddy, Vijayamma’s late husband, to project a favorable image of their family. The narrative now emerging from Sakshi places Jagan’s political ambitions ahead of family loyalty, depicting Vijayamma as jeopardizing Jagan’s standing by fueling the family dispute.

What’s Next for the YS Family?

With both Vijayamma and Sharmila openly challenging Jagan, this family rift is beginning to have political ramifications. This internal battle within one of Andhra Pradesh’s prominent families could impact Jagan’s image and support base. The extent to which Sakshi Media is now being used to counter Vijayamma’s claims underscores the shifting dynamics within the YS family.

It remains to how this feud will affect Jagan’s leadership in the long term, but the public confrontation suggests an intensifying struggle for control and influence within the family legacy.
