New Delhi, Jun 8 (PTI) The Editors Guild of India on Saturday condoled the death of its former president Ramoji Rao, the founder of Eenadu daily and the ETV network.
Rao breathed his last in Hyderabad early on Saturday.
The Guild said Rao would be best remembered as being a media owner who on several occasions took on the establishment and fearlessly spoke truth to power.

The Guild said Rao would remain an icon and continue to inspire journalists of this country.
