Former Undi MLA Sarraju passes away

KAKINADA: AP Kshatriya Corporation chairman Pathapati Sarraju (72) died of heart-attack during the early hours of Saturday at his house in Peda Amiram village near Bhimavaram of West Godavari district. He is survived by wife and two sons.

A close associate of former chief minister late Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy, Sarraju had been an MLA from Undi assembly constituency. As the legislator, he established a 220 KV sub-station in the constituency.

When Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy floated the YSRC party, he joined the party and extended his full support to Jagan, who made Sarraju a central committee member of YSRC.

Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy, along with AP Legislative Council chairman Moshen Raju, arrived by a special helicopter at Peda Amiram village and paid tributes to the departed leader. Jagan consoled the bereaved family members of Sarraju.
