Revanth Reddy Launches Bandaru Dattatreya’s Autobiography, Hails Him as ‘Ajata Shatruvu’
Hyderabad | June 2025 — Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy on Saturday released the autobiography of Haryana Governor Bandaru Dattatreya, titled ‘Prajala Kathe – Naa Atma Katha’, in a grand ceremony held at Shilpakala Vedika in Hyderabad. The event turned into a celebration of a life dedicated to public service, drawing admiration from across the political spectrum.
The launch was graced by several national dignitaries including Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, former President Ramnath Kovind, and former Vice-President M. Venkaiah Naidu. The presence of such senior leaders underscored the immense respect Dattatreya commands across party lines.
In his address, Chief Minister Revanth Reddy described Bandaru Dattatreya as an “Ajata Shatruvu” — a person without enemies — comparing him to former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee for his inclusive and compassionate political journey. “Dattatreya garu is an embodiment of simplicity, humility, and unwavering commitment to public service. He is truly a role model for aspiring leaders,” said Reddy.

Speakers throughout the event praised the autobiography for offering not only personal insights into Dattatreya’s life but also a broader narrative of India’s political evolution over the decades. The book is seen as an inspiration for future generations to understand the values of service, integrity, and leadership grounded in public welfare.
‘Prajala Kathe – Naa Atma Katha’ is now available for readers and is expected to serve as both a political memoir and a guide for those interested in public life.
