Sakshi (transl. The Witness)[2] is an Indian Telugu language daily newspaper sold mostly in the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. It was launched on 23 March 2008 by Jagati Publications Ltd. owned by Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy.[3][4][5]
Sakshi is widely regarded as a propaganda outlet for Jagan Mohan Reddy and his political party—YSR Congress Party (YCP).[10] It is frequently criticized for its biased coverage of the political rivals of Reddy and YCP.[15]
The newspaper is a part of Sakshi media group which also owns the Telugu news channel, Sakshi TV.[16] It is currently run under the chairmanship of Y. S. Bharathi Reddy, wife of Jagan Mohan Reddy.[17][18][19] As of 2023, it ranks second in circulation among Telugu daily newspapers behind its rival Eenadu.[20]
