Congress MP Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy continued his 'Odarpu yatra' in Prakasam district of Andhra Pradesh today.

Jagan began the day from Etamukkala village in the district and went on to console a few families, whose members committed suicide or died of shock following the death of his father Y S Rajasekhara Reddy.

He went on touring several villages and unveiled the statues of YSR at several places.

Highlighting the welfare schemes like tuition fee reimbursement, free power for farmers, old age pensions launched by his father, Jagan said the initiatives earned the former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister a permanent place in the hearts of people.

"I am indebted for the love and affection you are showering on me. Our beloved leader Rajasekhara Reddy has given me a huge family that comprises all of you," he said.

Despite the Congress high command's reservations, Jagan resumed his yatra in Prakasam district on September 3, a day after the first death anniversary of his father.

The Congress leadership, however, indicated that it may not take any action against him for now.

Jagan launched his yatra from West Godavari district in April this year. In addition to West Godavari, he has so far covered Khammam, Srikakulam and East Godavari.

State Mines Minister B Srinivasa Reddy, a close relative of the YSR family accompanying Jagan in Prakasam district, had earlier said the yatra would continue for the next two years to cover all the districts in Andhra Pradesh.
