"RAYUDU" is a title of Central Andhra Kammas for centuries. Cinemas like Peda Rayudu, China Rayudu etc. and names like Alluri Sarva Rayudu (Jagirdar Family), Balusu Sarva Rayudu,(Jagirdar Family), Mullapudi Venkata Rayudu (Jagirdar Family), Yarlagadda Guruva Rayudu (Samastanadeesulu), Survaraya Sugars, Survaraya Textiles etc. illustrate Rayudus name usage by Kammas. Rayudu name derived from Nayakudu (Army commander). Central Andhra consists East Godavari, West Godavari, Krishna, Khammam, Guntur, Prakasam and Nellore Districts. Some people of Central Andhra also use Rao, Chowdary as title. Chowdary is a hindi word & It is used as a title by lower castes as well as upper castes in Northern, Eastern and Western India . In UP burrial ground incharges also use chowdary as title. In some areas Chowdary means very lower caste.

According to one story there were 20 Chowdaries appointed by Maharastra Kings in Krishna and Guntur Districts. But there is no evidence for this claim. You can't find any inscriptional evidence to support this claim. In our view it is a fabricated story to use chowdary title. The 20 Chowadaries are actually Jagirdars of that area at that time.

Some half knowledged Kamma Groups from Tenali and Gudivada promoted this Chowdary title and spread across Andhra Pradesh in 21 st Century. However Chowdhary title is not advisable to Kammas. You can use Raj(not Raju)/Rayudu/Dev/Nayudu instead of Chowdary title. During British Rule some kammas were given "Rao Bahadhur", "Rao Saheb" titles by British then onwards kammas are using the Rao title with their names. Most of the Central Andhra Kammas use Rao Title, so like other castes. In the past most of the kammas used Nayakudu as title for 1500 years.

Population Figures on the basis of Nativity (Actual Place their Forefathers)
(a) East Godavari ---------------> 4,50,000
(b) West Godavari --------------> 5,50,000
(c) Krishna District ------------> 9,00,000
(d) Guntur ------------------------> 10,00,000
(e) Khammam District --------> 5,00,000
(f) Prakasam District ----------> 7,50,000
(g) Nellore District -------------> 3,50,000

Total Estimated Population is about 47,00,000, in and around Central Andhra, as of now. Out of this nearly 10 lacs people migrated from Central Andhra to Hyderabad, USA, Nizamabad, Karnataka, Chattisgad, Chennai, Nagpur, Uttarandra (Visaka, Vizianagaram, Srikakulam Distr. of AP) in 20 th Century.

ORIGIN:
There are several theories regarding Kammas origin. In our view nearly 50,000 army of CENTRAL ASIA, belong to Central Asian Castes, came to North India between 200 BC and 200 AD and settled in India or a branch of Sakas/Kushans/Kambojas who migrated to India between 200 BC to 200 AD and attracted to Bhuddism, Jainism, Indian Culture and settled here or they may be a group in Andhra Tribe which was described in Puranas. Their original caste/tribe name is unknown. They have no relation with Aryans. These Soldiers/Generals liked indian culture and converted to Budhism and married some North Indian women and settled in Ganga Valley. After some time due to some political reasons they moved to MP and there from they came to Krishna Valley and settled in Kamma Nadu (Krishna, Guntur, Prakasam Districts. of Andhra Pradesh). The Palnadu Kings (Chagi Anugu Raju Family), Kota Kings of Amaravathi told in inscriptions that they came from Jabalpur/MP and their forefathers were ruling in MP before 600 AD. During this period they married some Kapu women (farmers) of Kamma Nadu. That is why they were called as (Kamma) Kapus in some inscriptions. Slowly after some time these Kamma Kapus became Kammas. They worked as Governers, Small Rajas, Feudal lards, Village presidents etc. in Prakasam, Guntur, Krishna and Khammam, West Godavari districts under their own Vishnukundina Dynasty. Slowly they captured power in Kammanadu and other parts of Central Andhra. First kingdom of kammas in Andhra may be Vishnukundinas, Who ruled most of the Central Andhra over 250 years with Vengi, Amaravathi, Vinukonda as Capitals. After some time they left Buddism and Jainism and converted to Hinduism. Kammas are largely "Vaishnavs". You could find very few "Saivas" in Kammas even now. In Hindu puranas written by Brahmins centuries back there was a story written like this...
Once up on a time Wife of a king lost her ear ring (which is called in Telugu 'Kamma') to Enemies. She prayed goddess Lakshmi for help then few worriers come out from a basket (gampa) they went for the hunt of the "ear ring". some of them find that ear ring and killed the Enemies. They were called as Kammas by the king then onwards. Eventhogh it is a tale but it is telling us that kammas are soldiers/worriers by profession, Vaishnavs and Respectable caste for centuries.
Kammas become one of the rulers of Centra Andhra and Established the followings kingdoms during the period 3rd century AD to 20 th century AD..

GREAT DYNASTIES:
(1) MADHYA PRADESH KAMMA DYNASTY: It is evident from the inscriptions of Palanati Kings and Kota Kings that there were small kamma kingdoms in Madhya Pradesh. They may be existed for 1oo to 200 years in Madhya Pradesh between 100 AD to 300 AD. Palanati Kings said that they came from Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, Kota kings also said that they came from Madhya Pradesh and their forefathers were ruling there. These all incidents are giving scope to assume that there were small kamma kingdoms in Madhya Pradesh. Due to attacks by local Kshatriya kings they may migrated to neighboring Andhra Pradesh.

(2) VISHNUKUNDINA DYNASTY : After coming to Andhra Pradesh Kammas worked as Governors under Satavahana kings and took control over Prakasam, Guntur, Krishna Districts. After getting full control over Kamma Nadu Kammas established indipendent kingdom called as Vishnukundina Dynasty and ruled for 250 years between 370 AD to 630 AD. Later capital was moved to Vengi with that some kammas migrated to West Godavari District with the kings. Vishnukundinas were written as "......Brahmana Kshatriya Tejamukalavaru.........." in inscriptions, that means they are not Brahmins or Kshatriyas. This inscription is available now also for reference. Usage of Telugu Language in their inscriptions also indicate that they are not Kshatriyas or Brahmins. Because at that time all the Brahmin & Kshatriya Kings made their inscriptions in Sanskrit/Brahmi lipi. Local people only claimed kshatriya status like Vishnukundins, Kakatiyas, Velanati Chodas, etc. Verma title is used by many non kshtriya communities like Brahmins, Sudras, etc. You all know that even Brahmin Rulers also used Varma title in Andhra Pradesh. Kota kings, Velanati Chodas, Kondapadamati kings also used Verma title at that time and also clearly declared themselves as Sudras in some inscriptions.

(3) MUSUNURI NAYAKS : Musunuri Nayaks ruled nearly 100 years in Andhra Pradesh between 1300 AD to 1400 AD, from Raja Nayakudu to Sabbhinati Nayakulu between 1300 AD to 1400 AD. At the beginning they ruled small parts near Eluru, later they made Rekapalli (Khammam District) as their capital, later shifted to Warangal & Karimnagar. Musunuri is Surname of Musunuri Nayaks. Some people say that Musunuri is not a surname, but it is not correct, no Ruler earlier called with Place name in inscriptions of Andhra Pradesh. And also at that time they were not ruling Musunuru, they were actually ruling Warangal or Rekapalli. So they should be called as Rekapalli Prolaya Nayakudu or Warangal Prolayanayakudu!.

(4) KORUKONDA DYNASTY: Korukonda kings are close relatives/family members of Musunuri Nayaks. Musunuri Kings made Korukonda kings as governers to Korukonda Kingdom before that they were ruling in Khammam District. East and West Godavari and some parts of Krishna District were ruled by them for 100 years. During this time kammas migrated to East Godavari District.

(5) KOTA DYNASTY : Kota family is one of the ruling clans of kammas. These Kota family first ruled some where in Madhya Pradesh during 200AD to 650 AD. Along with Kammas migration they came to Amaravathi Area of Guntur District and established a small kingdom under Chalukya Kings. They ruled parts of Guntur District as Provincial Governers from 650 AD to 1300 AD under Chalukyas and Kakatiyas. They were supporters of Vengi Chalukyas and Kakatiyas. They fought many wars for Vengi Chalukyas and Kakatiyas. They were written as "Sudras" in inscriptions like other Kamma kings. Kota Betha Raju is the known great ruler of Kata Dynasty.

(6) DIVISEEMA DYNASTY: Diviseema kings ruled the land between Vuyyuru and Bandar in Krishna District and Velanadu for some time between 1100 AD to 1300 AD. Jayapasenani, who was Gajasainyadhakshudu of Kakatiya Kings, born in this family. He wrote a book on Dance. He also invented one dance programme.
(7) PALANATI DYNASTY : They ruled Gurajala and Macherla Provinces in Guntur District between 1100 AD and 1200AD. After that Chagi Gannamanayakudu of this family ruled near Vinukonda for some time.

(8) RAVELLA DYNASTY : They ruled the area between Udayagiri and Podili between 1350 AD and 1650 AD as provincial governers under Vijayanagar Kingdom. They were one of the battle forces of Vijayanagar Army. They fought with Golkonda kings and Velama kings of Telangana onbehalf of Vijayanagar Empire.

(9) YARLAGADDA DYNASTY: They ruled the land between Vuyyuru and Avanigadda from 1600 AD to 1950 AD as Samasthanadeesulu under British.

(10) VASIREDDY DYNASTY: They ruled the land between Jagayyapet and Chirala from 1650 AD to 1850 AD as Samasthanadeesulu under Hyderabad Nawabs and British.

(11) SAYAPANENI DYNASTY: They ruled the land between Podili and Srisailam between 1450 AD to 1850 AD as Samasthanadeesulu under Vijayanagar Kings, British.

(12) KOPPULA DYNASTY : They ruled the land between Pitapuram and Tuni between 1350 AD to 1550 AD.

(13) SURYADEVARA DYNASTY: They ruled the land surrounding Repalle - Rachuru between 1400 AD to 1700 AD.

Note : In Andhra Pradesh Verma title was not limited to Rajus, It was used by many sudra communities and Brahmins from 1 AD to 1400. for example Velanati Chodas, Kota kings, Vishnukundina, Salankayanas, Ananda Gothrikulu etc.

Some people think that Kakatiyas as kammas. But it is to be validated. In our view Kakatiyas belongs to "Nagulu" who were relatives of Pallavas. During Pallavas ruling in Central Andhra these "Naga tribe" people came from Tamil Nadu and ruled some parts in Central Andhra later migrated to Telangana and established Kakatiya kingdom. They belong to ST community. Bastar kings are also Kakatiyas. Kakatiya family descendents are still living in Chattisgarh. They are not claiming kamma origin. But some Kammas worked as Army leaders, Generals, Soldiers, Tax Collectors in Kakatiya Dynasty. After the fall of Kakatiya Dynasty these Army leaders formed a Kamma group under Musunuri Nayaks (Kammas). After the fall of Musunuri Nayaka Dynasty they settled in East Godavari and West Godavari, Khammam, Krishna etc. Districts. Even though Kammas ruled some parts of Central Andhra as Samantha Rajas/Jagirdars/Jamindars most of them worked as Provincial Governers, soldiers, Army Leaders, Village presidents. Some of them took agriculture as their profession and settled in villages as farmers and feudal lards. Raju caste is emerged from Chalukya, Chola, Kamma kings, Reddy kings and some Oriya kings only. We could see caste wise division in Andhra Pradesh during the time Palanati war. That is a concrete evidence for castes existence before 1100 AD. It could not happen in one day or one year, so We suppose that castes were pre-existed before 1000 AD in Andhra Pradesh. During Chalukya kings rule kammas worked under them as Governers, Governes, Soldiers, Nayaks and participated in wars against Rastrakutas and helped them in protecting their kingdom. We think that there is lot of Kamma history that is to be unfold.
Some Important Rulers of Andhra Pradesh :
(a) Satavahanas --> According to some historians they are north indians belongs to some Maharastra caste/Foreign Caste/Brahmins. They ruled some time from Maharastra and some time from Andhra Pradesh. They are not telugu people.
(b) Chalukyas --> Chalukyas came from Karnataka (Near Goa) to Andhra Pradesh and ruled nearly 400 years. After the fall of Chalukya kingdom they ruled small provinces later mixed with Raju caste.
(c) Cholas --> Cholas came from Tamil Nadu ruled 100 years later they mixed with Raju caste. Telugu Chola kings who ruled different parts of Andhra pradesh came from this Chola family. Araveeti family of Vijayanagar also emerged from Chola kings only.
(d) Reddy kings --> Reddys came from Maharastra, they may belong to hindi people/aryans. They ruled andhra for 100 years. They constitute 10% of Telugu population.
(e) Velama kings --> Velamas may come from Bihar to Andhra Pradesh they constitute 3.5% of Telugu population. They ruled Telangana for 125 years.
(d) Yadav kings --> Vijayanagar kings of Hampi, Sri Krishnadevarayulu, etc. are yadavs. They ruled entire south india.
(e) Choda kings --> Choda /Cholas came from Tamil Nadu and ruled 150/200 years and mixed with Raju community. Cholas are very famous kings of Tamil Nadu. They ruled some time here and left to Tamil Nadu. Those who born to Cholas here ruled some parts as provincial governers and merged with Raju community.
Kammas used Verma and Nayakudu as title between 1 AD to 1000 AD. Some Vishnukundinas and Kota kings used verma titles. Eventhough Kota kings, very rarely, used Verma title they were given Sudra Status in Inscriptions in Temples of Guntur Dist. Kammas accepted that Sudra Status becaused they are not Aryans and Kshatriyas but used Verma title to show their power only. After 1000 AD kammas used Nayakudu, Rayudu title (few people), Ayya title till 20th century. You cannot find any Chowdary title before 20th century. In 20th Century kammas started using Chowdary, Rao titles. That is why I think that these Rao and Chowdary titles would not fit to kammas.

KAMMA NAIDU CASTE
Some Kammas migrated to Rayalaseema and Tamil Nadu during Vijayanagar Rule ( between 1300 AD to 1700 AD) and settled as Nayakkars and Kamma Nayudus. These Kamma Nayudus, Kamma Nayakkars worked as Soldiers, Military Commanders in Vijayanagar kingdoms and later established the following kingdoms in Rayalaseema and Tamil Nadu
(a) Madurai Nayaks
(b) Kandi Nayaks
(c) Tadipatri/Gandikota Nayaks
(d) Melkalathuru Nayaks (Old Arcot Dt)
(e) Kurivikulam Nayaks (Tirunelveli Dt)
(f) Ilavarasanandanan Nayaks (Tirunelveli Dt)
(g) Neikarapatti Nayaks (Dindugal Dt)
(h) Arkadu Rajas (Chengalpattu Dt)
(h) Polygars of Ananthapur, Chitoor, Bellary, Koppal, Kolar, Chitradurga Districts.
(i) Polygars/Rajas/Jagirdars of Tamil Nadu
(j) Amaranayakulu in Rayalaseema & Karnataka under Vijayanagar Dynasty (1400 AD - 1700 AD). Amaranayakulu maintain huge military (10000 to 100000) & Nayamkaram (some province) for their military expenses. (Ex: Pemmasani Ramalinga Nayakudu, Peddasani Akkappa Nayakudu, Adeppa Nayakudu, Kama Nayakudu, Kotikam Nagama Nayakudu, Kotikam Vishwanadhanayakudu, Kurasani varu, etc.)

After the fall of Nayak kingdoms Kamma Nayaks setteled in Tamil Nadu, Rayalaseema, Karnataka. Now there were nearly 40 lakhs Kamma Nayudus/Nayakkars in the states of Tamil Nadu (21 lacs - 3% fo TN population), Karnataka (8 lacs) and Rayalaseema (12 lacs). Chandra Babu Naidu, Ex CM AP, Paritala Ravi Ex Minister, Vigo, President MDMK, Katta Subrahmanyam Ex Minister, Karnataka are among famous Kamma Nayudus.

So many castes are claiming Krishnadevaraya ancestary but it is not true. Actually Tulu Vamseekulu are Yadavs by caste and came from Karnataka's Tuluvanadu. Sangama & Saluva Dynasties of Vijayanara Kingdoms clearly said that they belong to Yadav community. Tuluva Dynasty founder Tuluva Narasa Nayakudu was appointed as Care Taker and Army General of Saluva Dynasty when the king was a minor. You can easily understand that how can Yadav Kings can appoint Non Yadav as incharge and care taker at that situation. In fact some Yadavarayalu dynasty ruled Chandragiri for 300 years from 12th century to 14th century before Vijayanagar Empire beginning. They used Rayalu title. This Tuluva Dynasty may belong to this Yadavarayalu family or Tuluva Dynasty of Tuluvanadu, a place in Karnataka. Some people say that Srikrishnadevarayalu mother's surname is "Chagi" and she is believed to be a kamma. Araveti family is Telugu Chola Kshatriya family. When Vijayanagar Yadav kings were unable to control muslim attacks they had given up their kingdom to Araveeti Chola Rajas with a marriage alliance.

Some other castes like Balijas, Mudirajus, Some Tamil castes claim Mudurai Nayaks ancestry. But none of them is looking correct. Their claim is to be verified. Some people are saying that there are some village records (Kaifiats), written on 'Talapatras' by a Village Headman or Karanam, of Anantapur District of Andhra Pradesh written in 18/19th century as evidence. But nobody is showing the original copies of that records. How can 18th /19th century Anantapur District village people could know about 16th Century Hero Viwanatha Nayakudu and his caste ?. That may be fake story because so many Kaifiats with fake stories were already found by many archiologists & historians.
The people sorrounding Madurai believe that Madurai Nayaks are Kammas. Most of the kammas neighbouring Madurai tell that Madurai Nayak 's caste as kammas. There is no single inscription that telling about Madurai Nayaks caste in Tamil Nadu. But so many castes claim their ancestry. Actually there is no inscriptions / evidence is available to tell that Kapus have dynasties in Andhra Pradesh earlier, I don't think that they have any dynasties in Tamil Nadu. Books like Rayavachakam which was written during the time (1550AD - 1650AD) of Madurai Nayak kings rule is also giving information that there were Kamma Governors but there was no mention of Kapu governers at that time. So Madurai Kings should be Kammas only. Famous Telugu Research Scholar and Historian Dr. Tirumal Ramachandra, a brahmin by caste, also said that Madurai king Tirumala nayakudu belongs to Kamma caste. Tanjore Nayaks may be Yadavs and Chenji Nayaks may be Boyas. Chitradurgam & Rayadurgam Nayaks were also Boyas according to Andhra Pradesh Jamindaries and Samasthanams book written by Acharya Tumati Donappa. If you study all the marriage alliances of Madurai Kings and their family members from 1530 AD to 1740 you can easily find out their caste by observing to which caste they mostly married their kin.

PRESENT SITUATION
Eventhough Kammas ruled and enjoyed political power and military power they lost all and most of the kammas now living as middle class people. Poverty and decreasing population is the main problem of kammas now. Kammas population is slowly decreasing due to having one or two children. 90% of Kammas are Very Poor and Middle Class people, only 10% of Kammas are rich. 100 years back they had large land holdings. Due to Land reforms and population their land holdings reduced to 2 acres / 3 acres per head. You can fin hardly few kammas in Government Jobs, Land lords now. Kammas are Socially Farward Caste but Economically Backward Caste in South India. Kammas don't have huge land holdings like Reddys, Kapus, Moduliars, Nairs, Lingayats because they are soldiers by profession. They should be included in EBC list. Unemployment and Underemployment is in rise in Kammas. Communities like Brahmins, Reddys are getting higher salaries and key posts in various sectors/jobs. But you can find very few kammas having higher salaries and in key posts. You can't find kamma job holders in companies owned by Reddy, Kapu, Brahmin and Kapus. But Kamma Industrialists give most of the jobs to Non-kammas, i.e. Reddy, Brahmins, Kapus, etc., castes that is also making kammas backward. After Independence (1950 AD) some Kamma women also spoiled kamma caste name and fame by doing things like Illegal activities, fake 498 A cases, Marrying low caste people, Divorces, Prostitution etc. in want of Money and Jobs. Great Leaders and Women of Kamma Caste sacrificed their lives to protect kamma caste Reputation in Society but now some kammas are doing reverse to that.
NANDAMURI ERA:
Nandamuri Taraka Ramarao (NTR) - Screen legend and former Chief Minister of Andhra pradesh, a great leader born in Central Andhra Kammas. NTR found Telugu Desam Party which is a political party of kammas forever. NTR helped kammas in many ways. He had given a new direction to kammas to live in this modern world. His sudden death is a set back for Kammas. Infact Eenadu Group (owned by Ramoji Rao Cherukuri) published NTR marriage with lakshmi parvathi and family dispute issues in a big way in their Eenadu Paper. That may created differences among NTR and Nara Chandra Babu Naidu and TDP Leaders and NTR Family?. The series of stories published in Eenadu about Lakshmi Parvathi Dominence in TDP may created lot of trouble to NTR. These issues may be a cause for NTR's death!.
Nandamuri Balakrishna: Balaiah is a son of NTR. Now he is coming to politics to uplift poor and to continue NTR Policies. NTR once declared that Balakrishna will be TDP CM candidate after his death. NTR fans wish that Balakrishna should start his own Media (News paper/TV channel) and come to politics.

Annai this author does not think the madurai nayaks,tanjavur nayaks,khadi nayaks are Kammas...
Please check.. inka kavali ante..
Check Madras Gazetter Manual,
Balija Puranam, Mckenzie manuals,
Penukonda Charitra... Open your eyes dude..Iam gicing you so many references.. Go to Madurai Meenakhsi temple and ask for Tirumala Nayak's inscitions in Tamil the staff will show them to you and see what he mentioned as his caste there !!!!! He mentions it as Balija...
Coming back to Rayudu title coastal Andhra loki velli Rayudu avaru ani oka vuru lo nunchoni adugu they will say he would be a Kapu not a Kamma.. There might be kammas having the rayudu tag but geneally its referred to Naidus..
Kammas are only called chowdharys in coastal areas...

Doubts regarding telugu script showing in some web sites
(a) According to many historians Viswanatha Nayakudu got the samantha rajyam in 1559. Atchyuta Devaraya is not alive at that time. But in telugu script it was written that Atchuta Devaraya gave the Rajyam to Viswanatha Nayaka.

(b) According to Telugu encyclopedias Araveeti kings are Telugu Rajus not Kapu/Balijas. You can find Telugu enclyclopedias in any library in AP They are clearly telling that Araveeti Kings of Vijayanagar Dynasty are Telugu Rajus so as Neelakanta Sastry.

(c) Madurai kings did not write their Garikipati surname in any of their books.

(d) Kandhi nayaks belongs to Madurai Nayaks family. So their surname also should be Garikipati

(e) 100s of books are there telling that Chalukya kings came from Karnataka (near Goa) and they are Kshatriyas (Not Kapus).

(d) If Madurai kings are Kapus/Balijas why did not they give any Samantha Rajyam to Kapus/Balija like Pemmasani Zamindari near Madurai etc.

RAYUDUS said...

You have to open your eyes babu... Go to Madurai temple and task in any language and listen what they will tell and see the inscriptions carefully, you will find a answer. I don't need to tell any thing. If you have inscription evidence about any kapu king please show me. I will definetely agree with you. If that much evidence is there why the Govt. of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh did not give the caste name in their Govt. books (Books printed through Govt. Universities like Telugu Viswa Vidyalam, etc.) All the evidence you are telling is bogus. Don't show me books as reference. Books may be influenced with personal feelings. So many books are there telling that Madurai kings are Kammas, Mudirajus, Kannadigas, Tamilians etc. We can not believe that. Don't see Mckenzy manuals etc. Mckenzy or Russell etc. Babus even wrote that Balijas are offshoot of Kammas and Kapus. Do you believe that?, Penukonda charitra also giving information that Madurai Nayaks are Pemmasingama Nayaks (Pemmasani Singama Nayaks), Madras Gazetter Manuals are not telling that Madurai Nayaks as Balijas. If you have any copies you can scan and mail to me Then I will agree with you So Babu don't see one side of the coin!. Regarding Rayudu title You know that Sarya Rayudu, Venkata Rayudu the famous East and West Godavari Kamma Leaders. Why did they used Rayudu title. If they are not Rayudu Why did they use the title. Nayudu is the title for Kapus not Rayudu check it. See also Peda Rayudu etc. cinemas in that Rayudu means a Chowdary not a Naidu.

Kapus have no dynasties according to Telugu Vignana Sarvaswams written by Non-kammas. Another interesting thing is That Kaifiat is also looking bogus. No body is showing original kaifit as it is format. So the Kapu/balija claim to be Madurai Nayaks is bogus?. Some people say Pemmasani Nagama Nayakudu (Pemmasingma nayakudu) established Madurai kingdom (according to penukonda charitra). Some people say that Tirumala Nayakudu gave some hints that he was a Kamma Nayakkar. That is to be validated. There may be few Balija kings in Tamil Nadu but not Madurai kings, Chingee kings. But in Andhra get any evidence regarding Kapu Dynasties is almost impossible. Because there were no Kapu kingdoms.

Why ask me go and check with your own Kamma brothers on Wikipedia
who are much better in knwledge than you and they will enlighten you about Madurai Nayaks,Tanjavur Nayaks and Khandi Nayaks...
Pemmsani Nayaks wat nonsense
if you have a zamindari will you
claim tehy were the rulers ???Absurd

ANd please why should i scan and send you the Document its your responsibility to publish accurate contents... not mine its your blog...search for it they aree all ove the internet... if you cna trust them then go ahead and go to a library...

Dude to enlighten kyou Mxkenzie did not write any books he only collected Manuscripts which are in the British Musuem and CHennai Museum the person who wrote the rubbish was Edgar thurston i cna uinderstand you have half knowledge... dont make a fool
of yourself by writing this rubbish..

FYI ther is no mention on Kamma
caste before 1250 A.D. in any inscriptions please check before you start claiming every Andhra Dynasity as kammas..

You are the same set of guys who said Kakateeyas are kammas... which turned out to be absolute rubbish...

Anonymous said...

(d) Kandhi nayaks belongs to Madurai Nayaks family. So their surname also should be Garikipati


When you say family does your family have only one surname no right ..Apply the same logic to every other fmaily in the world and dont make illogical arguments...

Neikarapatti Nayaks (Dindugal Dt)

Have you ever been to Nayakarpatti
The Nayakaptti nayaks are Rajus
not Kammas... The village or town consits of 80% rajus and in Tamil
Nadu they also call themselves Naidus... grow up dude...

"Some other castes like Balijas, Mudirajus, Some Tamil castes claim Mudurai Nayaks ancestry. But none of them is looking correct. Some people are saying that there are some village records of Anantapur District of Andhra Pradesh written in 18/19th century as evidence. But nobody is showing the original copies of that records. How can 18th /19th century Anantapur District village people could know about 16th Century Hero Viwanatha Nayakudu and his caste ?. That is all fake story. The people sorrounding Madurai believe that Madurai Nayaks are Kammas. Most of the kammas neighbouring Madurai tell that Madurai Nayak 's caste as kammas. There is no single inscription that telling about Madurai Nayaks caste in Tamil Nadu. But so many castes claim their ancestry. Actually there is no inscriptions / evidence is available to tell that Kapus have dynasties in Andhra Pradesh earlier, I don't think that they have dynasties in Tamil Nadu. Books written during the time of Madurai Nayak kings rule are also giving some hints that Madurai Nayaks caste as kamma. So Madurai Kings should be Kammas only."

Anantapur Manula does not take about Madurai Nayaks it talks about
the Penukonda and Anantapur Nayaks
who are Balija Naidu... and Koneti Nayudu... It does not talk about
Madurai Nayaks why would it anyway
and what are you complaining about..

Apart from saying there are Kammas in and around Madurai please give some other reference..Iam giving you one...

"Eventhough Kammas ruled and enjoyed political power and military power they lost all and most of the kammas now living as middle class people. Poverty and decreasing population is the main problem of kammas now. Kammas population is slowly decreasing due to having one or two children. Kammas are now Economically Backward Caste in South India. Kammas are not an agriculture caste so that kammas don't have huge land holdings like Reddys and Kapus. They should be included in EBCs. Unemployment and Underemployment is in rise in Kammas. Communities like Brahmins, Reddys, Kapus and Velamas are getting higher salaries and key posts in various sectors/jobs. But you can find very few kammas having higher salaries and in key posts. After Independence some Kamma women also spoiled kamma caste name and fame by doing things like illegal activities, 498 A cases, Marrying low caste people, Divorces etc. "


Where did you get this from ???
Are you insane Kammas are the richest community along withe the Rajus in Andhra Pradesh
and they are the onnly ones who have not asked for BC Status every other community like Kapu/Naidu,
Reddy,Velama and Bramhins have either asked for BC Status or a Sub caste is classfies as BC..

You are woirting absoulute junk dude... Kammas dont have to do jobs because they are very good enterprueners... and wat does salary have to do with it... you get your salary based on you designation not on your caste..

Stop posting this nonsense

RAYUDUS said...

you people say that there are kaifiats, inscriptions in Madras, Madurai???? Why don't you provide copy of that ????

You don't have any kaifiats, inscriptions stating that Kapus/balijas are Madurai Nayaks, Gingee Nayaks, Kandy Nayaks, You people talking depending upon on Caste histories written by Caste loving people

Come to WIKI PEDIA. In Wikipedia it is telling one thing in one page other thing in other page.

See in Kamma History they wrote like this ...

wikipedia: Kamma History
Kammas controlled large swathes of southern and northern Tamil Nadu for several years under the title of Nayacker or Naicker or Naidu, which was a legacy of the Vijayanagara Empire. The Zamindaris of Ilaiyarasanadal and Kurivikulam in Tamil Nadu belong to Pemmasani families

The inhuman atrocities perpetrated by the aliens on Telugu people later prompted two Kamma chieftains, Musunuri Prolaya Nayaka and Musunuri Kapaya Nayaka, who served the Kakatiya king Prataparudra, to raise the banner of revolt[39]. After the fall of Warangal they united the Nayaka chieftains, wrested Warangal from the Delhi Sultanate and ruled for 50 years [40]. (Musunuri Nayaks)

wikipedia Boya history.
Rayadurg and Kalyandurg are the two important forts which were ruled by Boya Palegars. The name Kalyandurg came from Boya Kalyanappa, who was a Polygar in the 16th Century. Rayadurg was originally a stronghold of Boyar palegar who were very turbulent during the Vijayanagar rule. Kalyandurg was under the rule of Sri Krishnadevaraya and was a part of Vijayanagara Empire

RAYUDUS said...

Regarding Chalukyas there are no. of books in Telugu, Telugu Encyclopedias written by well known Historians, Professors in Recognised Govt. Universities, recognised by Govt. of India and AP and said that they are not Kapus. Present Raju caste people are decendents of that Chalukyas. Do you say they are half knowledge people are you agree that you are a half knowledge person?


All your claims that Kapus are Chalukyas, Musunuri Nayaks, Korukonda Nayaks, Araveeri Kings, Rayadurgam, Kalyanadurgam kings are absolutely fake.

Chalukyas are Rajus
Musunuri Kings are Kammas
Korukonda Nayaks are Kammas
Araveeti Kings are Rajus
Rayadurgam Kalyanadurgam kings - Boyars

Regarding Madurai Nayaks, Gingee Nayaks caste no body has any concrete evidence. Let us search for concrete evidence of their caste.

RAYUDUS said...

See kamma caste websites like Kammavelugu.org which is stating like this

Great Kamma Rulers:

Kakatiya Dynasty ® History Details..
Musunuru Nayaks ® History Details..
Nayak Dynasty ® History Details..
Vasireddi Dynasty ® History Details..
Pemmasani Nayaka Dynasty ® History Details..
Kamma Nayakas of Candy ® History Details..

Your claim as Krishnadevaraya as Kapu, Madurai, Kandy Nayaks as kapus is looking wrong.

and another thing in some inscriptions Kammas, Reddys, Velama were also mentioned as Kapus. You can not say that all kapu words in inscriptions (if any available) belong to kapu/balija community only.

for example in one inscription during the time of Kakatiyas it was mentioned that

...................................Kapulella kamma Velama lairi...........

See Veligoti vari vamsavali for evidence

See these messages from Tamil Nadu...

THIRUNARAYANAN RAJKUMAR(203.163.64.81) :--

Mostly TN kammas marry with in our own area. In my family now only started to go outer areanamely Tiruvannamalai. There also can see kammas but Madurai Kammas, our slang is different we can differentiate with others. Mostly our area kammas will not use word "nesa undhi" meaning it is good or nice. We only use "Baagha undhi". Other communities here use" nesa undhi". Nowadays my relatives also marry girls from Andhra, Nellore also.

Since I have not gone in deeper asking our relation with Tirumalai Naicker. Until today I am thinking that we belong to Tirumalai Naicker comunity. Even my cousin sister name is Rani Mangammal. We are boasting about Tirumalai Naicker and Rani Mangammal in providing roads, tanks and helping all the comunities and releigions at the same time keep Vishnavism in good place also.

My family name is machavaar and our Kula deivam is "Sri Lingammal". Usually our kamma community will not use shiva names. We only use Vaishnava names. But my kula deivam looks like shiva name. When relating with Tirumalai Naicker forefathers, their names are not vaishnava names. Recent 12~14 century onwards Vaishnavism started momentum in TN or south India.

May be I can get back to you after reading our "Kamma Deepam" monthly


T.RAJKUMAR(chithraj ~hotmail) ( 203.117.33.25) :--

As read thro' the forum I thought of giving some info regarding this. We are from Kamma community, our house name is "machhavaar". Our native place is Ramanathapuram district near Madurai, Tamil nadu state. We are known as "Naickers" in that area. Our area was ruled by Thirumalai Naicker. Under the golden rule of Rani Mangammal the whole southern Tamil Nadu was doing well. I was told by my grand father we were to collect the tax from people here. My fathers young age guruvaaru from Andhra pradesh visit us for family functions. The fellow community in our area address us with much respect and as "Ayya" only. Since the our forefathers were in good positions in the government all the males are in our community were addressed as "Ayya". Even today we call our fathers as "Ayya" only. Ayya in Tamil means Sir.

I can also see some other community also using the name "naicker" (kambalatthu naicker) in our area they are "Gorala-vaalu". They are from Kattabomman community. Gorala-vaalu means those who rear sheep. They worship "Jakkamma". We can hear this name in Tamil movie "Veera Paandiya Kattabomman"
In Arcot and Kanchipuram areas "vanniyars" also using naicker names.

We kammas here identify ourselves in the times of marriages we ask for kammas only. We can identify ourselves by our own Telugu slangs which may not be grammatical but we can differentiate ourselves from the rest of naickers or naidus. Now every telugu speaking person in Tamil nadu says he is a naidu.

-----thanks for the info Raj, it shows how 'nayaka' was a title not confined to any single community. The sheep rearers are called Gorrela-vallu, Kuruba, Dhangar etc in neighbouring regions. They have distinction of producing FIVE powerful dynasties ( maybe more) in south India. But they like to pose as poor downtrodden community

RAYUDUS said...

Kandy nayaks are direct dicendents of Madurai Nayaks their surname should be Madurai Nayaks surname only. They should not have another surname.

These surname of Garikipati, Alluri is all bogus.

Another interesting thing is Madurai Nayaks did not mentioned their surnames before their names any where.

Some Web historians, Kamma Vari Charitra saying that Tirumalai Nayakkers mentioned his caste name as kamma in somewhere. That is to be obtained. Then we can clearly say that Madurai Nayaks are Kamams
Until then keep watching our blog.

On my search venture on the world wide web I happened to land on your blog;

Did spend some time and browsed the blog; good job; keep it up :)

Being a Kamma Naidu, I would love to add some facts to your blog;

My grandfather (paternal) is from Sithayankottai (near Dindigul) and my mom is the eldest and our ancestry village, farm lands, Masarpatti, is in the Tuticorin District. Like my village and many more (around 500 plus) villages has a majority (more than 50 to 60%) of the population in the Kamma Naidu community; Telugu is mostly spoken and as far as I know very rare to find one who knows to read and write in Telugu.
My mom has 4 sisters and a brother. One of my aunt lives in Neikarapatti;(they have couple of schools and a cotton spinning mill). Neikarapatti and its neighboring villages (Kuruchikottai, Udumalpet, Naickanoor etc) up to and including Coimbatore and its neighboring villages once again are heavily populated with kamma naidus. My Other 3 aunts live in Coimbatore proper
& as you should know, Coimbatore is once again a very strong hold for the Kamma community.

Ki Rajanarayanan (Tamil author) a distant relative of mine (maternal grand pa’s side) and his karisal kaattu kathaigal and many of his novels are set in the villages (in the Tirunelveli, Tuticorin Districts)
Though these novels are stories (fiction) they depict or rather bring to light and give us the life and style of the Kamma society; the way they migrated from Andhra, how they chose the black cotton soil area to cultivate cotton (from cotton cultivation, now they are into cotton ginning, spinning and into textile and textile machine tool manufacturing; Laxmi Mills, LMW at Coimbatore etc).

It’s really wonderful to see this lovely debate go on.

Love to keep you all posted with some facts if you would like me to post in your blog.

What is this fanatic crap? The words about Eenadu and lack of knowledge of incidents and not being able to understand Journalism ethics - How come studies won't help the people to be reasonable? Margadarsi is an issue, not that I know - even a kid in India knows that it was a political creation and the abusrd politicians (especially congress) do not hesitate to sell the coutnry for their own benefits. BTW, Vishnukundinas are real Kshatrias (not Kammas) based on several inscriptions available todate - the last king being Madhava Varma 2. Well, I do not expect a reasonable reaction to my comment either but again could not stop myself from posting this when I see how far this kind of fanatism / castism /fundamentalism can blind the mids of the people - its not just Muslim and Christian fundamentalists - Caste fundamentalists among Hindus are also major issue (may not be for the world as others do but for India).

HEY RAYUDU.... Good research and i really appreciate it!!! I read all comments it looks like other community like kapu are more bothered about this article. First of ALL i don't understnad one thing WHY SO MANY SUB CASTE in KAPUs. Looks like KAPU community number has incread by combining different CASTE. I am not here to insult any other CASTE. I feel proud of my CASTE and same time I DO respect other CASTEs. But Many CASTE in KAPU is one doubt which is kind of unsolved puzzle to me.

RAYUDU YOU DID A GREAT JOB & YOU HAVE ANSWERS FOR EVERY QUESTIONS & EVERYTHING .. GREAT MAN!!!

ONE MORE THING IS, WHATEVER IT MAY KAMMA PEOPLE EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE MINIROTY WHEN IT COMES TO POPULATION HAVE ACHIEVED ENOUGH & THEY SERVED COUNTRY & BROUGHT GREAT RECOGNISATION TO TELUGU & ANDHRA PRADESH. SO WE DON"T NEED TO BOTHER ABOUT ANYBODY & ALSO PEOPLE DID RECOGNISED KIND OF WORK DONE BY PROMINENT KAMMS TO SOCIETY SO PEOPLE GIVE DUE RESPECT KAMMA PEOPLE.

BUT I HAVE OBSERVED THAT LOT OF KAPU / REDDY EDUCATED PEOPLE ARE JEALOUS OF KAMMAS & IT IS NOT AT ALL A GOOD MOVEMENT. BE COMPETITIVE AND ACHIEVE SOMETHING GOOD & DO SOMETHING GOOD SOCIETY PEOPLE WILL DEFINATELY GIVE RESPECT.

Brother see Andhra Vignana Sarvasvam

Any body can create a website with his views that is not fact

fact is only inscriptional evidence only according to famous historians

Several castes claiming several dynasties like these evidences that cann't prove their realiability

You all know that Titumala Ramachandra great historian, many awards winner, wrote in Andhra Varapatrica decades ago that Tirumala Nayakudu is a kamma. Is it not enough?

My blog is only a debate only whatever I know by books and inscriptions I presented. I have been studying hundreds of books for the last 15 years. So I want tell the people what I understood from great books written by AP's most famous authors.

I am not only a supporter of Kammas but also I like BC particularly Yadavs, Mudirajus, Gouds, Battarajus and Koppulavelamas. Because we all castes are living together from centuries.

I am not against Kapus as you think. I have so many Kapu friends. Infact I have more kapu friends than kamma friends. I personally feel that Kapus should occasionally be made Chief Ministers because they have huge population. But I oppose caste based violence or harrassment ( by any caste to any caste ).

Why I am saying Kammas should support TDP. Because you see that so many kammas now supporting congress What is happening After getting power by Congress party they only give 2 to 3 minister and kill so many kammas or try close kamma companies and making so many kammas jobless and so on and so forth. If kammas vote for other parties what is guarantee that other parties do not do like that. In AP Kammas are facing situation like JEWS once faced in GERMANY at the time of HITLER. Is that humane. If all kammas irrespective of their personal feeling support and stand behind TDP, TDP may win and kammas could live another five years peace fully. For kammas supporting TDP is for their existence not to enjoy power or to earn thousands of crores of properties. You all should understand this. If Chiranjeevi party respect Kammas, Kammas may support PRP also that depends on what he does.

Nayudu (distorted form of Nayakudu) is not a caste name. It is like a job title given to Warriors at a level. Kammas are not the only Nayakas. In Srilanka also there are nayakas like Bandaru Nayake etc.
Actually there is a belief that Kammas are originated from Srilanka during Sanghamitras' dynasty (Ashoka' daughter). They were influenced by her and started following buddhism. Since they could not find any authentic history of their caste, the title Chaudari was used in recent times by them just to show some links to the Thakurs of north india.

It is absolutely absurd to say only kammas have the title rayudus.It is still absurd to stay that kapus never ruled any dynasty in AP.you can create blog spot but dont give false information.
In Edgar Thurston's "Castes And Tribes of Southern India" and R.V.Russell's "The Tribes and Castes of Central Provinces of India", the ruling clans of Vijayanagar, Madurai and Thanjavur came from the Balija caste. According to Kante Narayana Desayi's, "Balijakula Charithra", Kings of Vijayanagar, Madurai, Thanjavur, Khandi (Kandy) and Thundeera (Gingee/Chenchi) were interrelated and belonged to Balija caste.

According to Velcheru Narayana Rao and Sanjay Subrahmanyam in "Notes on Political Thoughts in Medieval and Early Modern South India "The emergence of left-hand caste Balijas as trader-warrior-kings as evidence in the Nayak period is a consequence of such conditions of new wealth.

hello rayudu firstof all know the fact correctly and then write it in ur blog but dont change the history as u like and what you were trying to tell is all rubbish and do you have any proofs of what u are telling ? i assure that every kapu in this world tells greatly about his caste but he wont comment on other castes. but you kammas are alwys dragging kapus for quarrels because you are afraid of them .do you know what is the meaning of balija in sanskrit bali & ja which means "born from fire" they are also called as warrior merchants in andhra 30% of population is kapus and it is the only caste of that much population and i think that film 10,000 b.c is based on your stories only no one can change the history or truth atlast my suggestion is if u want to praise ur caste u can praise it and we will also support but dont comment on kapus and u want to know more about kapus go to www.kapusangam.com wikipedia and also u can see the writings on the sasanas of tirumala and other places .i pray to god to give you knowledge.feel proud to be a royal.all hail srikrishnadevarayalu

Kammas have contributed their share to the society, most of it is good. One thing I would like to comment on Kamma community is they have enormous caste feeling, they mingle only among themselves. They are very thrifty, do not like to spend. Forget about giving their fortune to less fortunate. In this article, it says kamma industrialist should give jobs only to kammas. That tells the whole story. There are exceptions. What I have written is the truth. If it hurts, sorry, truth always hurts.

Hi what you said is correct or not i don't know. And one more thing that you said is "Some kamma ladies are marring some low cast people" i am agreeing but they are not our people. Bad people and bad is available in all communities. See because our Kammas so many other casts are got so many good things. We are best helpers. And we can take care about our community. But one thing Kammas must have the 100% Unity. We are legends.

Kammas are not a major group around Madurai...Balija Gavaras outnumber them...infact Balija Gavaras population is bigger than Kammas...I would say Raja Kambalathars too outnumber Kammas...Kammas have unleashed their PRO machine with ulterior motives that does not have any strategic value.

There is no evidence that Musunuru chiefs were of Kamma caste.Even Musunuru chiefs did not say that anywhere.They claimed a fourth caste.
The people of Kamma caste claiming Musunuru nayakas as their, showing the word MUSUNURU as some families of
Kamma caste had the word Musunuru as their surname.The word Musunuru as surname is not only in Kammas,it is in many castes.To clear it,here is example,the word Thanniru is surname of TRS leader HARISH RAO.He is avelama.Thanniru Sitaramayya who contested for BAPATLA ASSEMBLY Constituency in 2009 is a Telaga.Similarly many families of Vaddera caste in Palanadu region of Andhra pradesh had the word Thanniru as their surname.So,the surname is not a standard to determine caste of a family,particularly in A.P. Hence, the kammas claim Musunuru nayakas as their dynasty is not valid.Similarly,the word Naidu does not belong only to balija caste.There are balija naidus, kamma naidus,Yerukala naidus, Yanadi naidus etc.So, the word naidu is denote a particular caste.So is the case with the word Rayudu.A few decades ago having the word Rayudu in name is a fashion.It is not a word of a caste.

hii guys
iam naveen mandava
i read all your comments the one thing i have to tell a small thing that velanati chodas who ruled over guntur district EVEN THOUGH they are ruling velanadu during 10th centuries boast them selves as the progeny of DURJAYA AND KAMMA KULODBHAVA
KULA =clan
UDBHAVA= RISED FROM
so we do not hesitate that our kamma community is a warrior clan and not arya kshatriya,we are independent republic called kamma nadu in krishna basin until 11 century many historians prioved it.
if we go through puranaas parasurama who is the son of brugu vanished all the kshatriyaaas on the earth for 23 times so according to hindu mythology no kshatriya is there on the earth.so who ever claimed they are kshatriyaas is bogus.
our family
bodhi varma BODHI VARMA is a buddhist his grand son dujaya and his grand sons velanti chodas,kondapadumatis, and their relatives haihayaas who is the migrants from gujarat is have illarikam to kamma durjaya chodas,as a dowry durjaya chodas gift haihaya with palnadu,later they merged into kammavar,and kakatiyas also claim in the begining their cast kamma durjay,which is power ful than the surya or soma clan and marital alliance with kammas in the begining,and once again rani rudramma fetch her husband as illarikam who is kshatriya but dont allow him to rule.later kakatiyas are kshatriyaas but the sought assistance and have good relations with kammas
after the comoing of turkish or turakulu to andhra kakatiya losts,after that the two kamma nayudu from musunuru give strong resistance to them,after 13 longs years of battele with turkish many kammas are lost their liver the number of kammas population is decreased but we got indepence kapa naidu establishe telugu king dom and won the title of andhra desa dheeswara
before palnadu war there is no evidence separate velama caste brahma nayudu who is by birth akamma founded velama veli =out of
so velama are just our brotheres and until the palnadu war the kapu(redddy)have no right to fight in wars they are peasents thats it
but one cunning lady of kapu (reddy)community won the friend ship of king of palnadu and started joining them as solideres,
suta purana mentioned that brahma needu refuges to fight with a peasent
the first ever reddy or kapu king dom is established in andakki by the mercy of kapaya nayudu
he gave vema reddi(as they are peasents from the begining they dont have any gothram until then) the famous gotram RECHERLA,the gothram of brahma nayudu and nandamuri families

so vema reddi discribed proudly him self as the slave to the LOTUS FEET OF KAPAY NAIDU,HOWEVER WHO EVER CLAMING KAPUS IN THE COASTAL not original they shouyld be balija or ontari or telaga they are not kapus,just workers to the reddies(original kapus) in the agriculture.

kamma originally claim they are durjayas my name naveen durjaya

VENKATESWARLU said...

Dear october 20,2012,6.48AM,in the middle ages many ruling families whether they are kshatriya or shudra claimed their ancestor as Durjaya.It is a fashion in those days.REDDYS established their kingdom at Addanki independent of musunur kapanayaka by dethroning yadavas who ruling at Addnaki. Velanati chodas were kshatriyas of suryavamsa.they were not kamma by caste.KAMMA KULODBAVA here means a person from choda family which is ruling kammanadu,not kamma caste.The kamma caste was not formed at that time.It was a formation of much later during the time of vijayanagara empire with the people who migrated from kammanadu to karnataka region to join in the of military sevice for the sake of lands the kings give to the soldiers.In the course of time the people who migrated from kammanadu were called kammanativallu, gradually kammalu.Palanati haihayas never merged with kamma caste.The people who have been called kamma are shudras where as haihayas were kshatriyas.AT the time of palanati haihayas there was no trace of kamma caste.Parasurama killing kshatriyas 23 times is a pukkitipuranam, absolutely a lie.PARASURAMA was defeated by Rama a suryavamsa kshatriya in the life time of Parasurama .If you read THE RAMAYANA IN THE COMBINATION OF HISTORY carefully you can realize that Rama's mothers were chandravamsa kshatriya women.From the beginning to present there have been kshatriyas without any slightest intruption.The lie is the creation ,against kshatriyas, of bramhans who were challenged by the kshatriyas in the field of religion.Fomation of velama and Reddy castes were centuries older than formation of kamma caste.

kamma also having garikapati surname .... surname of thirumalai nayakkar ... this prove that thirumalai nayakkar is kamma

Venkateswarlu Chennuboina said...

Surname of a person is never a yardstick to determine of his caste.Garikapati surname can be seen in many castes.It can be seen even in Bramhin caste. Does it mean Thirumal nayakar is Bramhin?

The Nayak is honorary and hereditary title of the Boya Caste People in India, the word boya spelled in few types, those were Boyar,Boyer,Bhoya,Bhoyar,Bhoi,Boir and Bhoirs and they alias as Bedar, The Bedar means the hunters of mountaineers, so the mountaineers of boya people hold the hereditary title of Nayak. Madakari Nayaka or Madakari Nayaka V was the last ruler of Chitradurga, India. (Chitaldrug (' Spotted castle,' or 'Umbrella rock'). — Chief town of the District of Chitaldrug, Mysore State; 126 miles north-west of Bangalore. Lat. 14 14' n., long. 76 26' e. Population (188 1) 4271. The modern town stands at the north-east base of a cluster of hills, covered with extensive fortifications. Many inscriptions have been found of the Chalukya, Ballala, and Vijayanagar dynasties. Local history commences with the family of the Chitaldrug palegdrs, who trace back to the 15th century. Their hereditary title was Nayak, and they claimed descent from the Bedar or Boya caste of hunters and mountaineers. They gradually extended their power on ail sides until they came into collision with Haidar Ali, who captured Chitaldrug in 1779.)
Naidu or Nayudu is a title of caste in India, returned at times of census by many Telugu classes, of Balija, Bestha, Boya, Ekari, Gavara, Golla, Kalingi, Kapu, Mutracha, and Velama. In Tamil Nadu, A Tamilian, when speaking of a Telugu person bearing this title, would call him Naicker or Naickan instead of Naidu.5
The titles of Boyar are said to be Naidu or Nayudu, Naik, Dora, Dorabidda (children of chieftains), and Valmiki. 9

The word Boya will be indicating the Rajput and the clan of Chieftain.Clan of Raja or King.

Boyar: The Ramoshi Bedars are found in large numbers in the Marathawada districts. They are, no doubt, a branch of Bedars who appear to have migrated to the Maratha country after their settlement in the Carnatic. This view is supported by a tradition which states that they came into Maharashtra under the five sons of Kalappa Naik. In their features and customs, but especially in their predatory tendencies, they have preserved the characteristics of their race. They .regard, with pride, the Raja of Shorapur as the head of their clan.
The Solar race koli people of boya palegar were ruled throughout the sound India by the honorary title of Nayaka, The valmiki said to be Balija / Balji / Gurusthula / Naidu, those people were ruled the Tanjavore, Madura and Vijayanagar. Origin Balija, Balji, Gurusthulu, Naidu.

Four clans, the Panwar, Chauhan, Chaluk)-a or Solankhi, and Parihar, had a different origin, being held to have been born through the agency of the gods from a fire- pit on the summit of Mount Abu. They are therefore known as Agnikula or the fire races. (Kachhwaha, Gohil, Bais and Badgijjar, are recorded as being of the solar race, descended from Vishnu through his incarnation as Rama).18

Prem's posting about boyar community is full of confusion filled with untruths.Particularly about AHIR community.Ahir and boyar castes are not related in any way in history.Gond ahir means gond people who took up the practice of rearing sheep.That does not mean gonds and Ahirs same.In gond ahir,ahir is used to mean sheep rearer.
chalukya, chola,chera and pandya are not any related to boyar caste. There is inscription evidence that Chalukyas,pandyas and cheras are yadavas and cholas are suryavamsa kshatriyas related to Ikswaku clan of Lord Rama.

“Where the mind is without fear
and the head is held high,
where knowledge is free.
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls.
Where words come out from the depth of truth,
where tireless striving stretches its arms toward perfection.
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost it's way
into the dreary desert sand of dead habit.
Where the mind is led forward by thee
into ever widening thought and action.
In to that heaven of freedom, my father,
LET MY COUNTRY AWAKE!”

3.Vaishya
4.Sudra (Who are Not Brahmins , Not Kshatriyas and Not Vaishyas)


This is the truth that by collapsing / mixing up with other communities new community formed which is considered as SUDRA

"శ్రీ మన్మహాపరిచ్చేదక వర్ణాట కోట కాకతీ వంశ పాటవముల వసిష్ట కౌండిన్య వర ధనంజయ కాస్యపాఖ్య గోత్రంబుల నతిశయిల్లు" అని శ్రీ మాన్ పరవస్తు వెంకటాచార్యులు వ్రాశారు.- ఇందులో కాకతీయులు కాస్యప గోత్రీకులని తెలుస్తోంది

AFTER FALL OF THESE DYNASTIES, THE RAJUS EMERGED AS ZAMINDARS :

o Charmahal : Kalidindi ( Koundinya Gothra)
o Golugonda : Bhupathiraju clan ( Dhananjaya Gothra)
o Karvetinagar ( Chittoor District near Tirupati)

" Ganapati Deva's sister Melambika was married to the second son of Chagi Buddaraju, who was ruling Natavadi region. Ganapatideva's first daughter Rudramadevi was married to Veerabhadra, Eastern Chalukyanprince of Nidadavolu and his second daughter Ganapamba was married to Kota Betaraja. After this marital alliance with the three Kshatriya clans of Chagis, Eastern Chalukyas and Kota Vamsa, Kakatiyas started claiming Kshatriya status as evidenced by an inscription found in Guntur District. As Rudramma Devi's husband Veerabhadra was from Eastern Chalukya family of Kashyapa gotra, subsequently Kakatiya rulers mentioned themselves as Kshatriyas of Kashyapa Gotra in their inscriptions."

Your gothrams and claims doesn't matter bro, rajus are next to nothing nowadays and we the so called sudras are actually more truthfull and hardworking than you that's why we are dominant in andhra and tamilnadu in all professions ,these gothrams were made by brahmin foxes just to give legitimacy to ordinary people who became rulers by hook or crook to sustain themselves as they don't fight or work but cheat making a fool of idiots like your ancestors and check your DNA too.

Yourdad said...

Sudras were agriculturists and artisans and Mr.einstien,Buddhist shakas,kambojas and many central Asian warrior tribes who settled in India after the rule of king maues did not like the brahmanical religion were also called sudras and remained actually most of the so called sudras belong to the five hordes(pancha Jana) who knew about the duplicity of brahmanical serpents.

Good story Mr.venkatesh ,your assumptions are awesome and you are an epitome of duplicity,kammas are outsiders to andhra just like many other castes they are no doubt warriors and skillful administrators when many of the now glory claiming cheap castes were hand in glove with the bahmani forces in backstabbing Hinduism and Telugu people ,kammas fought valiantly and defeated the Muslim forces again and again remember one king can't do anything but now the envy these cowards show and the urge to skew history by many like you is understandable,titles are different from caste and action speaks louder than your fake history read tamilnadu history book Madurai nayaks section and all these castes consisted of people from different tribes and races that's why the inteperu overlaps it is the same even in northindiancastes

Yourdad said...

This what truth is ,well said my bro don' t take these other caste bastards seriously they are burning in envy these good for nothing cowards are no match for us in education,talent and ferocity,I bet if any one of these other caste dogs stand in front of me ,I will be the last person they will see before waking up in ICU

One of texts in medieval period says "aalachoditamuna kaakateevarugolchi kaapulella velama kammalairi" . This means some in Kapu caste has become velama and Kamma during the Kakatiya period. Some argue that Kapu is general meaning for "Protector" but not caste in the above line.. Nope. Kapu is originated from word protector (ie; kapadevadu) but telugu literature never gave meaning protector for word "Kaapu".. Check with any Telugu pandit about it. We shouldn't literally take Kaapu meaning as protector. It is just originated from that word. That's all

Kamma, reddi, velama Naidu were titles that were awarded to Kapu caste during Kakatiya kingdom..

Mr. W. Francis states that "
All four of these large castes (Kapu, Kamma, reddi velama) closely resemble one another in appearance and customs, and seem to have branched off from one and the same Dravidian stock"

Moreover all these have similar surnames. esp Kamma and Kapu.

So Kammas fall into which Varna ??

There are only four Varnas mentioned in the ManuSmrithi.


Brahmin
Vysya
Kshtreya
Sudra

*order may not be correct, some people write kshtreya first.

As per our ancient dharma-shatras any one does not fall into above four is considered as pra-shava (half-dead) some people consider it as sankara (Mongral)

-- There may be several other scripts after ManuSmriti.. but all are to be ignored if before dharmashatra.

But a small correection "Rao" and "Naidu" Title Belongs to Only Velama Community. we have a strong prrof from Bobbily Yuddam and palnati yuddam Fame.
i think Both velama and Kamma communitys have few similarities in both castes. few sur names and gothras alsop same in both castes.

but Rao and Naidu title Belongs to Velama caste Only. we have strong reputed proofs and History..

thanks and Regards

REFERRENCES ON RAJUS ( The Telugu speaking Kshatriyas)

" Those who claim themselves to be Kshatriyas are in fact known by local names, in the Punjab - the Khatris; in Bihar,U.P.,Rajashtna and madhya Pradesh - The Rajputs or the Thakurs; and in Andhra Pradesh the Rajus"
- Page Nos. 239,240 A social history of India by S.N.sadasivan. Published by APH Publishing.
------------------------
." The Rāzus, Mr. Stuart writes further, ...... .. As a class they are the handsomest and best developed men in the country, and differ so much in feature and build from other Hindus that they may usually be distinguished at a glance"
- source : 'Castes and Tribes of Southern India' by Edgar Thuston
-----------------------
Sri V. Ramachandra Rao's article "A Brief note on the RAJU community of Andhra Pradesh" is available on the net.
which provides good info. on the Raju community.
-----------------------
Amaravati was part of 'Dharanikota' kingdom. It was first ruled by Satavahanas and also was ruled by 'Kota Kings / Kota Chiefs' who were Rajus ( Telugu Kshatriyas ) of Dhanunjaya Gothra. According to Wikipedia the country on the southern bank of Krishna river was ruled by these Dhanunja gotra kings as a defecto independent power for over 150 years beginning of the 12th century to the last quarter of the 13th century .
Kota Chiefs had marital relations with Kakatiya kings.
Kota Hariseema Krishna was a Popular King among Kota Kings. Other kings were Bhima Raju, Keta Raju, Rudraraju, Dantuluri Gannabupaludu. Telugu poet Srinadhudu dedicated his literary work " Dhananjaya Vijayamu' to the King Dantuluri Gannabhupaludu. It was also seen that Telugu poet Mangalagiri Ananda Kavi dedicated his literary work " Vijayananda Vilasamu" to Datla Venkatrama Nrupudu ( Datla venkatrama Raju) of Kota lineage. Present Rajus / Dhananjaya Gotra Rajus of surnames Dantuluri ( Tuni Zamindars of this surname), Nallaparaju Zamindars, Datla, Dandu, Rudraraju, Bhupatiraju, Penmetsa andother surnames of Dhananjaya gotra Rajus are descendants of this dynasty.

the author of this piece is a mad man plagued with a severe mental illness of casteism. he should either be confined to a mental institution or a prison. if such people are left to roam freely; they will claim as per the logic in this article that all historic figures of importance including gandhi, bose and nehru belong to kamma caste as many kammas are named nehru, bose and gandhi. people who have resources and power can spout and write whatever nonsense that comes to mind. they can create fantastic claims of great ancestry. but mind it you casteist scum;all kings were nothing but despots and tyrants who leached off the peasantry and sucked them dry. these a$$hole kings then paid riches to scholars to sing their peans and praise. if these kings were so great why did their kingdoms collapse like houses of cards in front of invading muslim hordes? kammas are nothing but a peasant caste who became rich with the onset of missionary education, irrigation projects, green revolution, cooperatives, closed economic policies and media-movie industry. without these they would be nothing but another peasant caste.
