RAW NTR Founder Says Group Will Stop Activities If NTR Personally Asks
RAW NTR founder Sai Roop defended the organisation's service initiatives, denied false allegations, and said the team would immediately stop its activities if NTR personally instructed them.
Amid growing debate over the activities of RAW NTR, the organisation’s founder Sai Roop has defended the group’s intentions, saying its only goal is public service and that it has never acted in a way that could damage NTR’s reputation.
Addressing a media conference in Tirupati on Saturday, Sai Roop said the meeting was organised to clear misconceptions and respond to what he described as a wave of false campaigns targeting the organisation over the past week. He maintained that RAW NTR was created to encourage social responsibility and community welfare.
Sai Roop outlined the organisation’s upcoming service programme, which will focus on three major initiatives. The first aims to motivate young people to participate in community service and stay away from harmful habits. The second will identify long pending problems in villages and work with local residents to find practical solutions, including organising awareness programmes for farmers. The third initiative will help take public grievances from villages to elected representatives and government officials.
He said the campaign would begin in a village in NTR district and would gradually expand to other areas. According to him, the organisation believes service is much more than food donation or blood donation and can take many forms that directly benefit society.
Rejecting allegations made against the group, Sai Roop said several false claims had been circulated, including accusations of financial fraud and exploiting NTR fans. He insisted that the organisation had done nothing to bring disrepute to the actor and said its members considered themselves inspired by the values associated with NTR.
Sai Roop also questioned the origin of a letter that reportedly opposed the organisation, saying he was unsure how it had surfaced or whether it truly reflected NTR’s views. He added that if NTR personally asked them to discontinue their activities, the organisation would respect his wishes and immediately stop its programmes.
