“I have committed my whole life in the service of the people of the state. In order to ensure financial stability within the family, we started Heritage in 1992, which came into operational by 1993. Today, my spouse Bhuvaneswari has transformed the Heritage foods to a respectable level. It was only Bhuvaneswari who looked after the business and I'm proud to say that we are leading a company, which can be called an ethical and a principled business,” he added.

Recalling the launch of NTR Memorial Trust, Mr Naidu said “Earning money is important, but giving back to society is equally important.”

And, most importantly all along the trust has been operating on a non-profit platform”.

Meanwhile, Nara Bhuvaneswari said, “It is a privilege to start NTR blood bank in the temple city of Tirupati, which has been a cradle for Mr Naidu’s higher education. Drawing inspiration from him, we launched the blood bank here on his 70th birthday”.

Ms. Bhuvaneswari further maintained that the NTR blood bank has been operational for the last 11 years and has provided 4,80,000 units of blood till now, saving several lives.voters in elections.
