Former Member of Parliament and BJP leader Ramesh Rathore passed away following a sudden illness at his residence in Utnoor late Friday night. His family rushed him to a private hospital in the district headquarters, but tragically, his condition deteriorated en route to Hyderabad, where he succumbed to his ailment. Rathore, who had served as the Zilla Parishad Chairman of Adilabad district and represented Khanapur as an MLA for an extended period, had been battling health issues related to a previous surgery. His body is now being transported to his hometown of Utnoor.
The untimely demise of Ramesh Rathore, occurring on the same day as the passing of senior Congress leader D Srinivas, has cast a somber atmosphere across the state.
