The former Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh N. Chandrababu Naidu has said that the credit for the food security law must go to Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao, popularly known as N.T. Rama Rao or NTR, an eminent Telugu actor who went on to become the Chief Minister of undivided Andhra Pradesh.
“We are discussing much about food security these days. But many of us don’t know that Mr. Rama Rao introduced the law in 1982 itself. Mr. Rama Rao was the pride of Telugu people and a treasure of India,” Mr. Naidu said.
He was addressing a public meeting after unveiling the statue of Mr. Rama Rao at Kamma Bhavan in Ballari on Tuesday.
