NELLORE: Krishnapatnam-based Bonigi Anandaiah, who shot to fame with his herbal medicine touted as a cure to Covid-19, has officially started distributing his medicine for the people of Sarvepalli constituency on Monday.
YSRC legislator representing the constituency, Kakani Govardhan Reddy, along with the team of Anandaiah launched the distribution of the concoction in the premises of Venkaiah Swamy temple in Golagamudi village in Venkatachalam mandal of the district.
Govardhan Reddy said the medicine would be distributed to 1.50 lakh families in the Sarvepalli constituency in the first phase. The team has made arrangements for the distribution of medicine in Podalakuru, Venkatachalam, Manubolu, Muthukur and in Thotapalligudur mandals of Sarvepalli constituency in the first phase.
Anandaiah's team had started preparing the concoction after the state government gave its nod for the distribution of medicine. The team has made more than one lakh packets of the medicine which is said to be a cure to covid-19 for infected patients and also the preventive medicine for the virus.
“People from other areas are requested not to visit Krishnapatnam village for the 'medicine.'
