Special occasion: Supporters break coconuts as YSRCP president Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, who is undertaking padayatra, completes 1,000 km, at Sydapuram in Nellore district on Monday.

“The 1,000-km mark. Each step I take makes me aware of your affection and support. I have seen the love & respect for Dr.YSR, and felt your pain, anger and distrust towards the current Govt. Your blessings strengthen my resolve to continue,” his tweet said.

To mark this occasion, Mr. Reddy unveiled a pylon that was erected by the party leaders at Sydapuram mandal headquarters here.
