Meanwhile, BJP Rajya Sabha MP GVL Narasimha Rao demanded the state government to name one of Vijayawada or Machilipatnam districts after the late Kapu Vangaveeti Mohana Ranga. "The greatness of the late Kapu leader, Vangaveeti Ranga, who emerged as a beacon of hope for the poor people and was politically assassinated by gunmen, should be respected," GVL said in the Parliament.
