Chinapadmanabha Ramanna

Chinapadmanabha Ramanna Nayudu got a grant of 500 villages from Tanisha in 1685 CE (Krishna district Manual). During a visit to Golkonda, Ramanna found that the Sultan (Abul Hassan Tanisha) was engrossed in a problem of taming his stubborn horse. Rammana rode the horse with aplomb and the pleased king gave as reward Sardeshamukhi of 500 villages such as Nandigama, Kammamettu (Khammam), Vinukonda and Kondavidu. He built a fort at Chintapalli and ruled till 1710. His successors Buchiraghava, Pedanarasanna, Chinanarsanna, Chinaramalinga, Chandramouli, Rajamouli and Lakshmipati ruled till 1760. During this period French and British were trying to gain control of the Andhra country. Jaggayya ruled Chintapalli from 1763. He was killed by French troops sent by Basalat Jung, brother of Golkonda Nawab in 1771. Jaggayya’s wife Acchamma committed Sati. Jaggayya’s son Venkatadri recovered Chintapalii in 1777 and earned fame as a benevolent and illustrious ruler.
