The political impact generated by her yatra had kept the pack of party MLAs and MP together and also shook up the state and central administration which eventually relaxed their political vendetta on Jagan and allowed him to come out on bail.' We can handle Jagan better than Sharmila, as if the woman power let loose will be difficult to contain ''Sonia Gandhi had annunced after Sharmila yatra struck at the heart of the people of AP districts,
