Rumors confirmed. AP YSRCP CM Jagan Reddy's Sister, YS Sharmila, leader of YSRCP splinter YSRTP will merge YSRTP into INC and will lead INC in AP. In this upcoming LS and assembly election in AP, it will be brother vs sister (+ mother since their mother, YS Vijayamma, seems to be siding with YS Sharmila.)
What is also funny is

YS Sharmila's son is getting married so she and her mother, YS Vijayamma, will visit her brother, AP YSRCP CM Jagan Reddy to invite him to the wedding. It will be an awkward meeting since it is now official she will be leading the AP INC against him in the upcoming elections.

There are also rumors, which YSRCP rejects, that there were some last minutes YSRCP moves to try to get YS Sharmila to reverse course and rejoin YRSCP by letting her run as a YSRCP MP candidate in the upcoming election.
It seems that YSRTP led by YS Sharmila, sister of YSRCP CM YS Jagan, will merge into INC. She will lead INC in AP to take on her brother in 2024. It will be brother vs sister. It is not clear if their mother, YS Vijayamma, who is also a member of YSRTP will join INC in which case it might be brother vs. sister/mother.
This picture is extra ironic since after the death of AP INC CM YSR, the Gandhi clan fell out of the YSR clan including YS Jagan and his mother and sister. YS Jagan was in jail for corruption charges (most likely trumped up by the Gandhi clan) in 2012-2013 and it was YS Sharmila and YS Vijayamma who ran the new YSRCP to take on the Gandhi clan-led INC. Now YS Sharmila is joining (or re-joining) INC to take on her brother. What a shift within 10 years.
