Former IAS officer Cholleti Prabhakar (67), originating from the AGMU cadre, is conducting a unique door-to-door campaign within the Nalgonda Lok Sabha constituency as part of his election campaign. Despite his unassuming appearance, which contrasts with his distinguished bureaucratic background, Mr. Prabhakar is actively engaging with locals, distributing pamphlets advocating the essential role of voting in upholding democracy. He retired as the Principal Secretary from the Puducherry government.
His poignant personal story, including the tragic loss of his son, Sravan Kumar, shortly after the latter’s selection to the UPSC, enriches his campaign ethos. Mr. Prabhakar is further contributing to society by establishing the Cholleti Sravan Kumar Foundation in memory of his son.
