Ramanaiah who had served as an MRO in Vajrapukothuru, Padmanabhan, and Visakha rural China Gadili, was transferred to Bantupalli in Vizianagaram district two days ago. He had also worked in the Vizag Collectorate holding different posts. After assuming the charge on Friday, the Tehsildar returned home at around 8 PM.
