A Massive Padayatra On Cards For YS Sharmila In AP?

Padayatras have a big legacy in Telugu state be it combined or divided. Leaders who did yatras have achieved power. YSR, Chandrababu, and Jagan went for Padayatra and rose to power. Before the 2014 polls, Chandrababu Naidu went on for Padayatra and he came to power. Jagan also came to power after his Padayatra.

Now it is said that another padyatra is on cards in the state. As per the media reports YS Sharmila might embark on a padayatra in the state to improve her image and get closer to the people.

YS Sharmila is the AP Congress chief and the party could not make any mark in the recent elections. Forget about others, even Sharmila lost the elections. So she should improve her image and strike a good cord with the people. On top of this, Sharmila should also work on making the Congress strong in the state.

For this Sharmila is said to have decided the successful idea of Padayatra. If everything goes well we might hear from her about the road map and the places she would cover as part of the yatra.

YS Sharmila is the daughter of the late YSR and this is her USP. However, she could not bank on the image in the last elections. Having learnt from this Sharmila is in plans to start a padayatra soon.

Besides focusing on making the party strong, Sharmila is also working on welcoming leaders from other parties. Alliance is in power in Andhra Pradesh and the leaders from three parties won't look at other parties now. So YCP is the target now.

To attract the leaders from YCP Sharmila wants to use the Padayatra. It is said that the planning is underway for the yatra. Moreover, Congress party Rahul Gandhi performed successful yatras and we might see Sharmila doing the same.
