In less than 24 hours after submission of resignation letters by two TTD board members, another trustee Rayapati Sambasiva Rao decided to follow the suit and tendered his resignation.
Mr. Rao, who is contesting from the Narasaraopet parliamentary constituency on TDP ticket, is learnt to have taken the decision to avoid any kind of unwanted embarrassment during filing of nomination papers.
In accordance to the powers conferred on it under Section 101 of Hindu Religious Institutions and Endowments Act of 1987, the State government accepted his resignation with immediate effect on Wednesday.
