The ground is being prepared for Sharmila, the daughter of former Chief Minister late Y S Rajasekhar Reddy, to play an active role in politics.
The first indication of this was available when she participated in the membership enrolment programme at Bangalore on Monday.
Sharmila also gave what appeared an out-and-out political speech on the occasion. She said that several political bigwigs of Congress and Telugu Desam Party were conspiring to defame YSR and targeting her brother Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy with an aim to scuttle his political growth.
“These Congress leaders are much old in age but very small in their mentality. They are targeting one young leader, that is Jagan. But, truth will prevail,” she said.
In the recent by-elections in Kadapa district, she undertook door-to-door campaign for her mother Y S Vijayamma and Jagan.
