With former minister Sai Pratap meeting Jaganmohan Reddy YS frequently, the sources are stating that this MP will be contesting the forth coming general elections for Lok Sabha on YSRC ticket. However, there has been no confirmation on the same. It is known that Sai Pratap was a close aide of former AP chief minister YS Rajashekara Reddy and if buzz is to be believed that was the only reason why Sai Pratap got a cabinet berth.

After Centre asking Sai Pratap to resign to his portfolio and step down from his ministerial seat, Sai Pratap was reportedly upset and since then he has been presumably moving closely with the members of late YSR's family. It has to be mentioned here that despite remaining in Congress, Sai Pratap never lashed out at Jaganmohan even after the latter criticizing Congress supremo Sonia Gandhi.
