<div>
	Born in Srikakulam district of Andhra Pradesh in December 1987, Kinjarapu Ram Mohan Naidu comes from a political family which definitely helped in becoming a Union civil aviation minister in the BJP-led NDA govt in 2024. Naidu&#39;s father, Kinjarapu Yerran Naidu, was a veteran Telugu Desam Party (TDP) leader and has also served as an Union minister between 1996 and 1998. The family has had close ties with the TDP for decades.</div>
<div>

<div>
	<strong>Education</strong></div>
<div>
	Naidu started his schooling from Srikakulam but later moved to DPS, RK Puram in New Delhi after his father shifted to the capital when the latter became a Parliamentarian. He later moved to the US for his higher education from where he attained a bachelor&#39;s degree in electrical engineering from Purdue University and an MBA from Long Island University.</div>

<div>
	<strong>Political Career</strong></div>
<div>
	Naidu entered the political arena after his father&#39;s death in 2012 and became an MP from his family&#39;s pocket borough, Srikakulam in 2014. He won by garnering over 50% of the total votes from the constituency. In the process, Naidu also became the second-youngest MP in the 16th Lok Sabha.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	In 2019, despite a YSRCP wave in the state, Naidu was able to hold his fort and was one of the three Lok Sabha MPs to represent the TDP in the then Parliament.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	However, in 2024, Naidu improved his vote share and won the Srikakulam seat by a huge margin of over 3 lakh votes.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Becoming a three-time MP at such a young age, a loyalist of Chandrababu Naidu and BJP getting short of the majority mark, all these factors ensured that the Srikakulam MP was allocated the Ministry of Civil Aviation in June 2024.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	In the past, Naidu has been a member of several Parliament&#39;s standing committees. Also, he has represented India at the 72nd session of the United Nations General Assembly in the 22nd meeting of the first committee on Disarmament.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Notably, Naidu got married in 2017 to Sri Sravya, who also comes from a political family.</div>
