The felicitation function was organised in here on Wednesday. Prominent among those who were felicitated was Daram Nagabhushanam, V Bhoom Reddy, B Jagannatha Reddy and I Sridhar Rao.

The leading doctors were honoured by Satavahana University Registrar M Komal Reddy, Spoorthi founder president K Jaganmohan Rao and historian Jaishetty Ramaiah, among others.
