Srinivasa Rao believed that the best approach to enter politics and become an important figure in the BRS government was to take advantage of the opportunity to appear in the press each day for some cause or another. He then began to indulge the BRS ministers and leaders, which allowed him to eventually gain access to the chief minister, K chandrasekhar Rao. When Eatala Rajender was the minister of health, the health director used to make sure he accompanied the minister on frequent visits to hospitals. Srinivasa Rao made news when he attempted to garland harish rao in public after harish rao was appointed health minister.
He was captured on camera stroking the chief minister's feet twice or three times at a recent meeting. He further defended it, stating that kcr served as a father figure to the entire populace and that it was acceptable to touch the chief minister's feet. To gain attention, Srinivasa Rao was also photographed while offering some tantric poojas at his residence in the khammam area.
