Well if the heading is confusing to you, then you definitely need to know about a village in East Godavari District. People in the village Gurthedu believe that NTR is still alive and assume that he is the chief minister of AP. One of the villagers said that they knew only NTR as the chief minister and argued that NTR is still alive and no one had told them about his death, including the village head, who also didn't knew about it.

Another villager explained why NTR is still in their hearts. He told that the credit would go to one of the NTR's popular scheme “TELUGU MAAGANI GRAMEENA SAMARADHANA”, through which the tribals received 2-5 acres of land in the interior forest areas to grow cashew and mango. After 7 years, the tribals got triple benefit and for the first time they have seen such a huge amount of money in their hands.

Incidents like this always make us remind of the pride of the Telugu’s DR. NANDAMURI TARAKA RAMA RAO and he will remain in the hearts of Telugu people forever.
