Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the first time inducted a BJP MP elected from Andhra Pradesh into his cabinet. Narasapuram MPBhupathiraju Srinivasa Varma (47) from West Godavari district got a place in the central cabinet. Bhupathiraju Srinivasu Varma won as MP for the first time from Narsapuram Lok Sabha constituency.

Though earlier, M Venkaiah Naidu and Nirmala Sitharaman were in Modi’s cabinet, both of them elected to Rajya Sabha from other states.  Varna borin in Bhimavaram had earlier contested twice as BJP candidate to the Lok Sabha, but failed. But now he has won with a record majority of 2.76 lakh votes.

He is presently state BJP secretary and worked as Joint Secretary and Correspondent of Dantuluri Narayana Raju – DNR College, Bhimavaram. He played an active role in the BJP Yuva Morcha. Served twice as West Godavari District BJP President. He was elected as Bhimavaram Municipal Councilor on behalf of BJP.

 His father was a government employee and Srinivas Varma, who studied Master Librarian course, was employed as a librarian. As an activist and leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party, he has been in the party for about two decades.

Srinivas Verma, who has good relations with the Sangh Parivar, was active in the ABVP. He was closely associated with former union minister and popular film actor Krishnam Raj, who had earlier won from Narsapuram. Krishnamraj’s wife participated in the election campaign on behalf of Srinivas Varma in this election. She appealed to voters stating that a vote to Varma is a vote to Krishnam Raju.

He was happy when the party nominated him as its candidate ignoring claims of several heavy weights and claimed it as honouring an ordinary worker of the party. He is known as a non-controversial and humble person.

Former YCP MP Raghurama Krishnam Raju wanted to contest from here as BJP or TDP candidate. But as BJP insisted on this seat for their choice candidate, Raju later joined TDP and contested to the assembly.
