'These young guys, I tell you...': Harsha Bhogle's reaction to Jagan Mohan Reddy's imminent ascension to AP CM has a senior-junior connection

In over nearly a century, India's Ivy League school--Hyderabad Public School-- has produced chief ministers, entrepreneurs and several globally celebrated corporate executives including Microsoft's Satya Nade, Adobe Systems CEO Shantanu Narayen, and the list goes on.

And now, there is an addition to the list. With Jaganmohan Reddy making a clean sweep in Andhra Pradesh, friends and classmates from the Hyderabad Public School are simply beaming with pride. And the person to highlight this is none other than Jaganmohan Reddy's school senior Harsha Bhogle.  

Harsha Bhogle had attended the Hyderabad Public School and subsequently received a B.Tech. degree in Chemical Engineering from Osmania University's College of Technology in Hyderabad.

Taking to Twitter, the cricket commentator wrote that the Chief Minister designate of Andhra Pradesh was from 1991 batch:

"So @ysjagan is from the 1991 batch of HPS! These young guys, I tell you......"

On May 27, 2019, Jaganmohan Reddy met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi on Sunday to discuss the matter of according special category status to the state. Reddy, who was unanimously elected the leader of YSR Congress legislature party on Saturday, also spoke to the prime minister about the state’s financial situation and sought central funds.

“Had an excellent meeting with Andhra Pradesh’s CM designate YS Jagan Mohan Reddy,” Modi tweeted. “We had a fruitful interaction on several issues pertaining to AP’s development. Assured him all possible support from the Centre during his term.”

Reddy told reporters that the situation would have been different had the saffron party won just 250 seats in the Lok Sabha elections.

“We would have then supported BJP only after they signed the special category status document,” ANI quoted him as saying.

“If the BJP would have been limited to 250 seats, we would not have had to depend so much on the central government. But now, they do not need us. We did what we could do and told him [PM] of our situation.”
