Chandupatla Janga Reddy, former BJP MP, who shot to fame defeating P.V. Narasimha Rao from Hanamakonda Parliament constituency in 1984, passed away on Saturday due to age related issues.
A Jan Sangh activist from his early days, Mr. Reddy dedicated his life to the ideology of the Jan Sangh and later the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). His body was kept at the BJP headquarters in the city for people to pay their last respects. He would be cremated in Warangal later this evening.
