Family members rushed him to a corporate hospital in Hyderabad, where he breathed his last. He was suffering from critical illness for a long time.
Nara Ramamurthy Naidu was well known in the political circles. He served as the MLA of the Chandragiri assembly constituency in 1994. However, before the 2002 general elections, he quit the TDP and joined the Congress party before returning to the TDP eventually. He was away from active politics for a long time due to his health condition.
