My True Identity

Our ancestors hailed from a village called PALAMEDU in Madurai District , the then Madras Province. They were landlords and used to witness the Bull fight similar to the Spain kind of stuff.
With time they had moved in groups towards Chittoor District and settled down there in different villages based on their individual agricultural strengths.

My Father side:
My great grandfather (Palamedu Munuswamy Naidu) was the landlord of Nagiri village and was very lavish in nature and swindled all their wealth without any forecast of future. Consequently my grandfather (P.M.Bheemaswamy Naidu) was forced to leave the village with my father (Palamedu Munuswamy Dilli Naidu) in kid stage towards Madras on employment basis. My father (born in 10/10/1941) was the last son (fourth) with one and only younger sister (Kannamma) in their family and were living in Red Hills area of present Chennai. On getting employment in M/s. KCP Limited, my fathers' family moved towards Tiruvottiyur. He joined in the company as a Machine Operator and was specialised in Radial Drilling machine. Apart from this good skill, he was a good sportsman and stood second in TN state for Short put. He was a good athlete though was moderate at studies.

My Mother side:
My grandfather's( Bollini Narasimhulu Naidu) family had also migrated from Madurai and settled down in Tirupati.On getting married to my grandmother (Lakshmikanthamma) and further employment basis in Southern Railways, he had shifted to Perambur and settled down there. My mother Kasturiamma was the eldest with two younger sisters and two younger brothers in the family.
She had completed her studies (upto 10th only) at Singaram Pillai school near Villivakkam one of the oldest educational institution in Chennai. That school had both Telugu & Tamil medium to their curriculum. My grandfather is blood related to Bollini Munuswamy Naidu - who was once upon a time chief minister of Madras Province. My mother side were comparatively rich in terms of educational, financial and social status

My social side:
Self was born on 31st March 1971 and in the same year KCP company went into lock out and people working there were forced to search for another job. Father along with his other colleagues (Mixture of Tamil & Telugu) were desperately on hunt for a job and came across the BHPV company advertisement. My father along with some of his KCP colleagues had got employment in the same year and we moved to Vizag and initially stayed at Raliway New Colony (Thaatichetlapalem). Subsequently moved into BHPV Quarters (F-436) after 3 to 4 years of residing in Railway New Colony.
My father had the skill of Drilling so happened that his photo was published in one of the editions of "UDYOGA VIJAYAM" on the cover page. He had won many laurels during his tenure of 30 long years of service and was known for his modesty in the company. He joined in Light Machine Shop and also retired from the same LMS department with due respect.
