Rachakonda Viswatha sastry was revolutionary telugu writer from Visahhapatnam, India. He was born in 1922 and by his 16 th year he met M N.Roy in Vizac. Mr Abburi Ramakrishna rao, librarian and stage specialist in Andhra University at that time brought Roy to the university and introduced to vice chancellor Cattamanchi Ramalingareddy. Abbru Varadarajeswararao, son of Ramakrishnarao and Viswanatha sastry were friends and together they met Roy. They were students in A V N College, Vizac at that time.
Since the meeting of Viswanatha sastry with M N Roy is important I was curious to know details.
The brother of Viswanatha sastry Dr Narasimha Sarma who lives in Visakhapatnam traced the dairies and sent me the details. The dairies were written in Telugu and hence Narasasimha Sarma put it in English for me and sent me .
I am giving that historical important information here:
Aug,19 Thursday 1937
We went to meet M.N.Roy today. We were introduced as members
of the executive committee of Youth League. He is very tall,
His pronunciation is German. His wife is an American.
Aug. 22 1937
M.N.Roy's lecture in the beach today. It seems he said
that Socialism is not appropriate for India at this time
27th August 1937 Friday
M.N.Roy presided over and delivered the "History Inaugural
address, We had a photo and Tea party. When we told
our Principal about our inviting M N Roy, he asked us whether
we were going to learn from him about making bombs..
Some one seems to have informed M.N. Roy about this
comment by the Principal. He spared no words in criticising the
Principal in his speech.
18th (month?) Saturday 1937
Today he gave (me) our photo taken with M.N.Roy.
It came out well.

29th August Monday 1938
A discussion took place today between Rajeswara Rao and
N.V.Rama Rao on M N Roy. N.V.Rao does nor like M N Roy
.whom Rajeswara Rao goes on prasing. It seems that N V
Rama Rao is not a Congres Socialist or Royist or Gandhiist.
I am however a Gandhiist.
