– Writing history is a difficult task: IIT Ramaiah
– Ramannapet history is the first historical book in the united Nizamabad district
Mortad, (Gatla News): In the past, histories of kingdoms and countries were written. But writing the histories of villages is very difficult. For any history, stone inscriptions, ancient books, government records, firmans, (orders) gazettes, symbols of ruins, old sayings, ancient manuscripts, etc. are the evidence. Writing stories, novels, and poetry is easy. These do not require much evidence. But evidence is the basis of history. Thus, the hometown of Kankanala Rajeshwar, a famous historian from the erstwhile Mortad mandal of Nizamabad district, currently Ramannapet village in Velpur mandal, is Ramannapet. He decided to write the history of Ramannapet in 2002. He started researching from 2003 and brought it to a form in 2004. After much effort, he wrote the history of the village “Mathrubhoomi Ramannapet” in 144 pages in April 2006 and presented it to the world. The history of Ramannapet is the first historical book in the joint Nizamabad district. History is the study of human activities and events in the past. The history of Ramannapet is written by a prominent educationist, social activist, IIT trainer, born on November 20, 1925 in Gudur, Palakurthi mandal, Janagama district of Telangana. He established an IIT training center in Nallakunta, Hyderabad and earned a good name in IIT training and became known as IIT Ramaiah. He was elected as a member of the Legislative Council in 2007 from the Warangal, Khammam and Nalgonda teachers’ constituency and served as an MLC until 2013. Renowned historian Kankanala Rajeshwar presented the Ramannapet history book to Chukka Ramaiah, who read it and praised it saying, “Writing history is a very difficult task, Rajeshwar, you have beautifully crafted it…! Chukkaramaiah is currently 99 years old. Speaking on the occasion, Kankanala Rajeshwar said that Chukkaramaiah should live a long and healthy life.
