Chandra Babu Naidu brother Nara Ram Murthy Naidu passed away.Ram Murthy Naidu, the brother of former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu, passed away earlier today after a prolonged illness. He had been battling health issues for the past two to three years and was recently hospitalized at AIG Hospital in Gachibowli, Hyderabad, where his condition worsened.
Mr. Naidu had a distinguished political career, serving as a TDP MLA from Chandragiri (1994-1999) before later joining the Congress. Despite past political differences with his brother, the family bond remained strong. Chandrababu Naidu, who was in Maharashtra for election campaigning, immediately cut short his trip upon hearing the news and returned to Hyderabad. His son, Nara Lokesh, has also canceled his Amaravati commitments.
This tragic loss comes at a difficult time for the family, as their nephew, Nara Rohit, is set to be married next month. In 2019, the YSR Congress Party attempted to exploit Ram Murthy Naidu's illness for political gain, spreading false allegations of mistreatment. These claims were vehemently refuted by Nara Rohit.
The final rites will be performed in the family's native village, Naravaaripalle.
