Four family members of former Telangana MP and Congress leader Rajaiah died after a fire broke out in his Warangal home on Wednesday. The deceased include his daughter-in-law Sarika and her three children. While Congress party members claimed it was a suicide, the police are investigating "all possible angles". Sarika had filed a harassment case against her husband and staged a sit-in outside Rajaiah’s house last year, Daily News Analysis reported.
