Jagan Reddy Elected Lifetime President Of Andhra Pradesh's Ruling Party

The YSR Congress will now have to seek the Election Commission of India's nod to let Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy be the party chief for life.

Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy was on Saturday elected president for lifetime of Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress (YSRC).

The process was completed on the concluding day of the YSRC's two-day plenary, after the party constitution has been amended to enable Mr Jagan's election as president for a lifetime.

Mr Jagan established the YSRC in March 2011 after quitting the Congress. Ever since, he has been continuing as the party president, with his mother Vijayamma as honorary president.

Mr Jagan was last elected the YSRC president at the party plenary in 2017.
