YS Sharmila, the Congress candidate from Kadapa Lok Sabha seat, also declared in her affidavit that she owned land and jewellery worth Rs 9.29 crore and Rs 8.3 crore, respectively.

Touring Srikakulam, new Andhra Congress chief Sharmila has stepped up attacks on her brother over issues including state’s financial status & alleged attacks on Christians in Manipur.
