A government official in Telangana collapses inside the state Assembly premises, prompting a minister to rush to his aid and perform CPR. The minister, Vakiti Srihari, is shown in videos administering chest compressions and first aid after the official becomes unconscious in a corridor.
Reporting identifies the official as Krishna Mohan Raju, 50, a section officer in the Energy Department and personal secretary to senior IAS officer Naveen Mittal. A doctor on duty also reaches the scene, and Raju is taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital. Sources cited in one report say Raju dies while being shifted, with a suspected cardiac arrest.
While outlets agree on the collapse, the immediate CPR by Srihari, and the subsequent death after attempts to revive him, they differ slightly in emphasis. One source focuses on the CPR and timing of the rescue, while another adds the surrounding political context in the Assembly on the day of the incident, including heightened tensions and protests.
