NRI fans pay homage to YSR

Los Angeles, Sept 2, 2012: Hundreds of YSR fans in Los Angeles fondly paid their reverence to the late chief minister Dr. YSR on the eve of his third Vardhanti.

Launched with the motto ‘Lend a helping hand’, the foundation has donated more than $ 350 million towards health care and other programmes till date.
