Early Life & Family Background
Born to Andhra politics on 21 December 1972, Yeduguri Sandinti Jagan Mohan Reddy is the leader of Andhra Pradesh politics. In 2025, at 52, he became the torchbearer of his father Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy’s political legacy. The late Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy was a former Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh. His mother is Y. S. Vijayamma, an eminent person in society. His sister, Y.S. Sharmila, is in active politics, holding a big leadership position.
Life & Family
On 28 August 1996, Jagan married Y. S. Bharathi. The couple has two daughters named Harsha and Varsha. The elder daughter, Harsha, studied abroad with a stint at a top business school in France for postgraduate studies after graduating from the London School of Economics. Varsha is currently pursuing further studies in India.
Political Journey
Jagan entered politics in 2009 by winning the Kadapa Lok Sabha seat shortly after his father’s passing. In 2011, after parting ways with the Congress party, he founded the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP). Besides a massive statewide padayatra, he cemented strong relationships with the people of Andhra Pradesh. The result of his hard work was the landslide victory of YSRCP at the 2019 state elections, thereby making him the 17th Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh.
Between 2019 and 2024, the Jagan administration launched an array of welfare programs, including Jagananna Amma Vodi and the Navaratnalu schemes. These schemes were targeted toward education, health, women’s empowerment, and rural development and thus gained in popularity with many sectors of society.
Net Worth in 2025
The net worth of Jagan Mohan Reddy stood at INR 757 crores by 2025, showing a massive increase in value over a period of five years. The millionaire would call both movable and immovable assets his own, with business interests in real estate, energy, and cement.
Contemporary Role and Challenges
Jagan resigned as Chief Minister after the elections held in 2024, but remains at the helm of the YSRCP and hence exercises much influence in politics in the state. He has been criticising the fiscal policies and governance styles of the present government. Due to his political challenges and allegations pertaining to some financial controversies, he remains a forceful leader with a solid backing of staunch followers.
Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy’s journey is one of political will, deep-rooted family legacy, and a vision for forging the future of Andhra Pradesh with people-centric governance.
