Jagan, the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, has recently faced criticism for his English-speaking abilities. Despite being a prominent political figure, many have been surprised by his reliance on reading from notes even for simple speeches. This habit has extended to delivering public addresses from a notepad affixed to his bus.
A recent interview with a female journalist from Times Now has intensified the scrutiny. Jagan’s responses to questions have sparked mockery on social media platforms. For instance, when asked about the internal family dynamics regarding his father’s legacy, Jagan’s choice of words, particularly “supporting characters,” has been subject to ridicule.
Similarly, when prompted to differentiate between Indian politicians Rahul Gandhi and Narendra Modi, Jagan’s response received widespread trolling on Twitter. Initially attempting to dodge the question, his awkward laughter and evasion tactics further fueled the criticism.
These incidents have reignited discussions about Jagan’s communication skills, particularly in English. Despite holding a prominent position in politics, his struggles with spontaneous speaking without notes have not gone unnoticed by the public.
