Union Tourism Minister G. Kishan Reddy has written a letter to Telugu Desam Party national president and former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, seeking the TDP’s participation in the 125th birth anniversary celebrations of freedom fighter Alluri Sitharama Raju.
The TDP, in a press release issued on Thursday, said the Union Minister had urged Mr. Naidu to send a representative for the celebrations to be organised at Bhimavaram on July 4 in which Prime Minister Narendra Modi would participate.
Mr. Kishan Reddy said the ‘Alluri Jayanthi Utsav’ was being organised as a part of the ongoing ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’, and that it would serve as an occasion to remember the great deeds of Sitharama Raju.
