What Is Happening With YS Sharmila?

We have been hearing a lot about YS Sharmila of late on the possible merger of her party into the Congress party. At regular intervals, some or the other news concerning YS Sharmila, chief of YSRTP hits the headlines to keep the flame in the issue burning.

Despite media reports claiming about the possible merger, nothing is happening in this regard. Recently Sonia Gandhi came to Hyderabad and many felt that we might hear big news on the merger of her party into the grand old party. However, nothing happened and there is no clarity on this.

Political experts say that YS Sharmila is battling a tough time politically. There is a lot of difference between the media reports and the reality. The reports often say that the merger is on and the big news will be out at the earliest but no such scene is happening.

The countdown for the general elections has begun and Telangana is expected to go for elections in a few months. The Congress party is making strategic moves and inviting big leaders to its fold to become strong. But it looks like the Congress almost forgot about Sharmila.

On one hand, there is no clarity on what Congress is thinking about YS Sharmila. On the other hand, YS Sharmila’s party is becoming empty day by day. A few noted leaders already left the party and folk singer Epuri Somanna who walked with YS Sharmila took the ruling BRS party route.

Sharmila comes from the YS family and she ventured into Telangana to bring Rajanna Rajyam. Though she received a big reception she failed to bank on the same. On the other hand, it is said that a few Telangana Congress leaders are opposing her joining as her roots are from Andhra Pradesh.
