Jagan likely to get more support

Kadapa MP Y S Jaganmohan Reddy, who would be kicking off his Odarpu Yatra from Srikakulam on July 8 and then going to East Godavari on July 11, appears to be getting more response from the party leaders than he expected.

All the eleven Congress MLAs from East Godavari have announced that they would participate in Jagan's Odarpu yatra and extend full support for this programme in their respective constituencies. In addition to MLAs, the local people's representatives including MPs will also participate in the six day yatra which begins from 11 of this month, said Kakinada MLA Dwarampudi Chandrasekara Reddy.

Known as a close associate of Jagan, Chandrasekhara Reddy said that all the MLAs from the district had given their consent to this extent. The MLAs had been given the route-map for the six day programme in the district. The Kadapa MP will visit the kin of the families of all the 74 people who died of shock after the demise of late YSR and console them, he said.
