YSR Congress party president YS Jagan Mohan Reddy finds himself in a complicated situation as he navigates the turbulent waters of a family feud while simultaneously pointing fingers at political rival and TDP president Chandrababu Naidu. This latest twist has Jagan lamenting that even his personal conflicts, particularly those involving his sister Sharmila, have become fodder for political attack.

Recent weeks have seen Jagan and Sharmila publicly airing their disputes over the properties of their late father, YS Rajasekhar Reddy. The situation escalated further when personal letters exchanged between the siblings regarding asset distribution were leaked to the media, revealing deep-seated tensions and accusations. Jagan has been criticized for allegedly trying to usurp family properties, a claim that has drawn significant media attention.

In response to mounting criticism, Jagan has accused Naidu of exploiting his family's issues for political gain. During a media interaction in Vizianagaram, he urged prominent media houses like Andhra Jyothi, Eenadu, and TV 5 to refrain from sensationalizing his family matters and focus instead on pressing public issues. He suggested that every family has its disputes, saying, “Ye Sabhi Ghar-Ghar ki Kahani Hai” (These type of disputes are in every family).

Jagan's frustrations appear to stem from the damage caused by Sharmila’s accusations against him, particularly her claims about his failure to uphold promises made to their father. Unable to address the family conflict directly, Jagan has resorted to dragging Naidu into the mix, which has left many questioning how the former CM is implicated in their personal affairs.

Sharmila has been actively campaigning against Jagan for over a year, fueled by these property disputes, prompting speculation about the dynamics of their relationship and Jagan's decision to involve a political rival rather than resolving the issue within the family.
