The tribal museum being established at Timmapuram will be named after Alluri Sitarama Raju, the freedom-fighter and leader of Rampa rebellion, according to State Tribal Welfare Minister R Kishore Babu.

 

 

 

He was speaking here after laying the foundation stone for the project that would be a tourists attraction.

Cottages will be built in the vicinity to enable tourists to stay and enjoy the ambience of a tribal habitation. The Alluri Sitarama Raju Memorial Tribal Museum, coming up on a 4-acre plot on the sea-facing side of a hill at Timmapuram, has been conceptualised by city-based artist Venkat to look like a traditional tribal Tudum or drum, with traditional tribal shacks spread over the rest of the area. There is an additional 5-acre plot nearby that would be alienated to the Tribal Welfare Department, he added.

The museum will come up in a year and ₹20 crore has been allocated, of which ₹15 crore would be for buildings and ₹5 crore for the library, M Padma, Director of Tribal Welfare, said.
