Former AP minister celebrates own death anniversary 12 years in advance

CHIRALA : In a bizarre incident, Dr. Paleti Rama Rao, a former minister of Andhra Pradesh, sent out invitations for celebrating his own 'Death Day' much in advance. Paleti Rama Rao, a former TDP minister and a two-time MLA from Chirala Assembly Constituency in Prakasam district, is now a member of the YSR Congress and a doctor by training.

According to reports, it was 'predicted' that he would die at the age of 75 in 2034. Hence, he had his death day invitations printed and decided to celebrate his 'Death Day' ahead of time, this year.

In the invitation letter, Paleti Rama Rao mentioned that no matter how much God preached, humans were unable to completely correct their way of life and thought processes. Dr Rao also mentioned that he turned 63 and just wished to live for another 12 years.

All preparations were made in Chirala town for the 'advance 12th death anniversary celebrations'. Maybe, we should call it "minus 12th death anniversary."He also intend to hold "minus" 11th death anniversary celebrations the following year and to continue his death countdown for the next 12 years.

The invitation letter asked guests to attend the ceremony on December 17, 2022, at the IMA hall in Chirala. The death invitation had also gone viral on social media.
