Adikesavulu (72) underwent a bypass surgery in a corporate hospital in Bengaluru a couple of days ago but could not survive, sources said here.
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy, Leader of Opposition N Chandrababu Naidu and State Congress President Botsa Satyanarayana mourned the death of ex-MP.
