Hyderabad: The residence of Srinivas Kuchibhotla in Hyderabad is filled with mourning relatives. His parents are in a state of shock. His family has appealed to the Indian government to ensure the safety of Indians in the US.
“We had never heard of ‘hate crime’ in the US, but we are seeing it after Trump took over as the President recently. It seems they are cultivating hatred against Asians and people from Middle East residing in the US,” says Venu Madhav, Srinivas Kuchibotla’s relative.
Srinivas Kuchibhotla was the second of three sons of Madhusudan Shastry, who retired from service in IDPL, and Vardhini. His elder brother Parashuram is a businessman and his younger brother Saikir-an is pursuing his Master’s in Dallas in the USA.
Srinivas is survived by his wife Sunayana Dumala, who he married four years ago. Sunayana also works for a technology firm in the US.
