YSR Congress Party chief Sri Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy has been named as one of the most powerful ten persons in Andhra Pradesh by the popular national political weekly India Today.

Sri Jagan Mohan Reddy tops the list of the ten influential persons who are destined to change the course of history of Andhra Pradesh, says the cover story of India Today in its latest issue.

The magazine says the persons with the ability to show utmost influence on their contemporary society coupled with their hard work and commitment would ultimately achieve success in their chosen field.

Only those who understand the necessities, anxieties and aspirations of the people and respond honestly to fulfill those aspirations will finally emerge as winners. Such winners only would be able to influence the society and in the process they become most powerful.

Such personalities, who are always special, may face several obstacles in their course of becoming winners but all those obstacles will disappear in thin air at the end, says the cover story, adding that in fact victory is never their aim. “For them, the victory lies very much in the activities they take up,” India Today elucidates.

Despite being jailed from May 27, 2012, Sri Jagan Mohan Reddy has become a major challenge to the ruling Congress party in the state with most of its MLAs also coming under his influence. 

Striving to fulfill the dreams and aspirations of his late father Dr. YSR aimed at progress of the state, Sri Jagan Mohan Reddy instilled certain amount of unbridled confidence among the people by being constantly with them and proving solidly he would be ever ready to fight for their cause.

In one of its earlier issues too, India Today once described Sri Sri Jagan Mohan Reddy as the most powerful politician who will play key role in AP and also at the Centre despite his being jailed. It must be noted that no other politician in the state was credited with such powerful influence by the magazine.
