Bharathi. Paripoornananda SwamyAndhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has visited Tirumala to offer silk robes to the Lord on the behalf of the state government on the occasion of the annual Brahmotsavalu. Usually, such rituals are done by husband and wife together.

But Jagan is not accompanied by his wife, Bharathi. Paripoornananda Swamy, in a TV debate, has made harsh comments about this issue. “YSR Congress leaders say Modi and Yogi Adityanath do not take their wives to holy shrines. Why the objection is only for Jagan. But they do not have wives,” Swamiji said.

“Those without wives are Sanyasis. Hence, they will go alone. Those with wives and still go alone will become Sannasis. Our request for the Chief Minister is not to become a Sannasi. You are married and have a good wife. Take her along and do the rituals as prescribed,” the Swamiji added.

The video with these comments is going viral on social media. But then, this issue is always a debate whenever Jagan visits Tirumala but the Chief Minister never cares them.
