Andhra Pradesh Congress President YS Sharmila on Saturday, 20 April, filed her nomination for the Kadapa Lok Sabha seat.
Sharmila was accompanied by Sunitha Narreddy, her cousin and daughter of YS Vivekananda Reddy, who was murdered in the run-up to the 2019 polls.
“Filed the nomination as Kadapa MP candidate. Kadapa people did not forget YS Rajasekhar Reddy and Vivekananda. We believe that they will vote this time by keeping them in their mind,” said Sharmila, addressing a press conference.
Prior to filing the nomination, Sharmila offered prayers at her father Rajasekhar Reddy’s grave at Idupulupaya.
As Congress candidate for the Kadapa Lok Sabha seat, she will take on her cousin YS Avinash Reddy from the ruling YSRCP run by her older brother and Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy.
Elections for the 25 Lok Sabha seats in Andhra Pradesh are scheduled on May 13.
