YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) president and former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy has decided to attend the first day of the upcoming State Assembly budget session, which begins on Wednesday.
The budget session will open with Governor S. Abdul Nazeer’s address to the joint sitting of the Legislature, followed by a Business Advisory Committee (BAC) meeting to finalise the session’s agenda, schedule, and duration.
There had been uncertainty over YSRCP’s participation, as the party has been boycotting Assembly proceedings since the 2024 elections. However, during a recent meeting with party leaders, Jagan reportedly confirmed that he, along with YSRCP MLAs, would attend the Governor’s address on the opening day.
Sources said YSRCP leaders have also approached Assembly authorities seeking permission for Jagan’s vehicle to enter the Assembly premises in his capacity as a former Chief Minister. Legislative officials are said to have responded positively to the request.
Since the 2024 elections, YSRCP legislators have limited their Assembly presence to oath-taking ceremonies and the Governor’s address, while continuing to boycott regular sessions. The party has been demanding official recognition as the Opposition in the House.
There are also indications that YSRCP MLAs and MLCs may stage protests during the Governor’s address, alleging attacks on the residences of party leaders.
After the Assembly proceedings, Jagan is expected to hold a separate meeting with party MLAs and MLCs to chalk out future political and legislative strategy.
Meanwhile, leaders of the ruling coalition have criticised YSRCP legislators for skipping Assembly sessions while continuing to draw salaries and allowances, and are reportedly considering action over their prolonged absence.
Political observers note that Jagan appears to be preparing to intensify pressure on the government through both legislative and political means. The decisions expected to emerge from the upcoming party meeting are being keenly watched.
