Noted writer Bhamidipati Jagannatha Rao gave an impressive lecture on Butchi Babu and his writings.
He said that Butchi Babu had a different style of presentation which could be seen in all his writings. “Butchi Babu’s novels reflect the society and he never compromised while criticising any problem. His writings will make readers think on issues raised by him in every book,” he added.
