TDP worker ends life for special status

TDP’s active worker Bezwada Srinivas Rao committed suicide demanding special status to Andhra Pradesh. He is the only bread-winner for the family. He sold four acres of land to marry of his daughter. He and his son had also run a hotel for sometime. Of late, Rao was involved in land dealings and real estate.

Locals said that Srinivasa Rao was always worried that AP might not get special status. He used to tell everyone around as to why the state would not develop without special status. His wife Sivaparvathi and son Manikantha, are inconsolable.

Meanwhile, AP minister for irrigation Devineni Uma Maheswara Rao consoled Rao’s family and called upon the people not to resort to extreme actions on special status.
