Reddy's mother Y.S. Vijayamma, wife Bharathi and two daughters called on him in the jail. They brought with them a cake, which the MP cut in their presence to mark the occasion.
Jagan, as the young businessman politician is popularly known, is in jail since his arrest by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in May this year in disproportionate assets case.
A large number of YSR Congress party workers gathered outside the jail. Party leader H.A. Rahman cut a cake to celebrate Jagan's birthday.
The birthday was also celebrated by Jagan's supporters in Hyderabad and other parts of the state.
At
the party headquarters here, the party leaders also launched a signature campaign in support of Jagan. Alleging that Jagan is a victim of a conspiracy by Congress and Telugu Desam Party, the YSR party plans to collect a crore signatures to send the same to the president of India.
The Andhra Pradesh High Court is scheduled to pronounce Monday its orders on Jagan's bail petition.
According
to the CBI, Jagan entered into a criminal conspiracy with his father and then chief minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy to show undue favours to individuals and companies which invested in his companies.
The high court had last year ordered a CBI probe on a petition filed by Shankar Rao, a leader of Congress party.
Following his father's death in a helicopter crash in September 2009, Jagan was seen as his successor.
With
the central leadership of Congress party ignoring him, he soon parted ways to float a new party. He quit his Lok Sabha seat and was re-elected
from Kadapa by a record margin of over 500,000 votes in May last year.

at the age of 40 he looted 4000 crore rupees from Government??? people are not demanding the capital punishment for Jagan Reddy ???? however the people are demanding capital punishment for rapists ???? Whom do you consider more dangerous to the society a Government looter or a public rapist ???? Mostly a rapist acts as per the animal instincts he is having. Because humans roots are from Jungle. Some time they exhibit animal behavior and they do the rape.well with their act 2 or 3 people in the society misbehaved.. while the Government looter with his 4000 crore money in his hand he can manage several thousands of rapes. He can buy thousands of women and make them dance as he wish. and he can change the culture of the society by establishing several clubs for drink and for women yet the society wants capital punishment for rapists while no capital punishment for Jagan what a wonderful society it is????
