After losing power, the YCP realized the need for a legal cell, and YS Jaganmohan Reddy ordered its establishment at the district level.
The cell was intended to support party activists and leaders facing legal challenges, but reports suggest it has become a money-making operation.
The expectation was that the YCP legal cell would offer free legal assistance.
However, reliable sources indicate that lawyers within the cell are charging activists and leaders significant fees, ranging from Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 15,000 per case, including minor expenses like printing and other expenses.
This has sparked criticism among party workers, who are questioning why they must pay for legal support despite their loyalty and service to the party.
Many are now asking why these legal cell members are asking for money from the victims, when the party leadership is covering their legal expenses.
Concerns are growing about the future of party activism, especially as YS Jaganmohan Reddy focuses on strengthening social media efforts from the grassroots to the state level.
Doubts remain about whether the YCP Legal Cell will voluntarily address these issues.
