Jagan to contest LS seat

Y S Jaganmohan Reddy, who revolted against the Congress leadership, intends to seek re-election from the Kadapa Lok Sabha seat and says he is not keen on destabilising the Congress government in Andhra Pradesh. The son of late Chief Minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy said he has fast-tracked the process to register and launch his new political party, before the by-elections for Kadapa and Pulivendula assembly constituencies are announced. Both seats were vacated by him and his mother Vijayalaxmi, after they quit Congress on November 29 last year alleging “humiliation” by the party high command.
