Freedom fighter B. Narsing Rao passes away By Yunus Y Lasania| Published: 18th January 2021 7:06 pm IST Hyderabad: A city is not just its monuments or fancy developmental works that we can admire. It is a lot more than that; it is its people, and freedom fighter Burgula Narsing Rao was part of a group that had witnessed different epochs of our city over nearly nine decades. A true blue blooded Hyderabadi he passed away on Monday after battling illness at a private hospital. Narsing Rao, who was born in 1932, was also the first president of the All Hyderabad Students Union while he was a student at the Nizam College in the late 1940s. A nephew of Burgula Ramakrishna Rao (first Congress chief minister of the erstwhile Hyderabad State), he also belonged to a time when the Left in Telangana and Hyderabad city was a force to reckon with.
