Recalling his long association with Ganga Reddy, Secretary and Correspondent of the KITSW and MP (Rajya Sabha) Capt V Lakshmikantha Rao said that Ganga Reddy’s demise was a great personal loss to him. “Ganga Reddy was a gentleman who believed in values and ethics in business. He strove a lot for the Ekashila Educational Society’s development,” he added.
