He was hornoured with Grade de chevalier in 1931. His son's wife Kamichetty Savithiry became Conseiller Municipal from Kankalapet and later became MLA of Yanam. It was told that after MLA elections, she and Yerra Jaganatha Rao got same votes, so they kept lottery and she won it. His son Kamichetty Sri Parassourama Varaprassada Rao Naidu became MLA of Yanam and made it his pocket borough for nearly 40 years. It was Venugopalarao Naidou who provoked his son who was a pro-French leader to support merger of Yanam. There was a street named Kamichetty in Yanam. Offices held
