    All these people are ignoring the fact that Reddys are nothing but Kapus and their history is nothing but the history of Pakanati Kapu , Motati Kapu and Panta Kapu . They think some small kingdoms in coastal regions are important , but not Telangana ones . If they get confused with Telaga which is separate , it will just confuse them unnecessarily .

    Gajapati ,bobbili aren't kingdoms they are feudatories , reddy kingdom and recharla are the only major native telugu kingdoms apart from kaakatiya . Reddy is a caste formed by division of panta kaapus group ,during kaakatiya times atleast or maybe even before they were divided based on the area they were dominant in . If you go by the logic of endogamy then even kammas won't be a single caste single different sub groups of kammas didn't marry with each other. Balijas never used reddy title there might be some remote anamolies ,they use royal or naidu title and some use nayak ,only the b.c castes I mentioned use reddy title. Raghuveera reddy is an anomaly he comes from a big family and is a golla ,we don't know the story behind his family. Having reddy in surname doesn't mean anything ,surnames are just names of the village they are from ,if someone's ancestral village is gangireddypalem for example he will have gangireddy as surname. Also some people have reddy in their name like reddappa reddy ,tippireddy etc.. which get confused for titles but they aren't titles,they are just names. It was never changed to reddy because the caste is kaapu only ,kaapu=reddy. Telaga balija aren't kaapus they are telagas and balijas only.only reddies are kaapus ,in rayalaseema no one calls balijas as kaapus . Confusion came because some telagas started calling themselves as pedda kaapus and later for political benefit some castes with similarity have been put into the kaapu subgrouping .i think even they don't have kaapu in their caste certificate and have telaga balija.

    No Reddy claims pjr as their leader , nor is he associated with the community in any capacity . There are dozens of strong Gudati / Motati / Pakanati reddy leaders in TG , such as Indra reddy , sabitha reddy , Madhava reddy , Jana reddy , Chenna reddy , Ranga reddy , Komatireddy brothers , Revanth reddy , Jaipal reddy , Sudarshan reddy , Kishan Reddy , DK family , Jagadish Reddy etc . Regarding kingdoms , if you are not aware of specific kingdoms , that is your belief , but it doesn’t negate certain historical facts . Panta reddy subcaste is associated with coastal Andhra reddy kingdom . Motati and Pakanati reddy clans held 15 samsthanam kingdoms in TG and almost 50 zamindaris . If you are talking about politics , then Motati Reddys are significant in TG , with CM also being from that subcaste . In AP , the Kodithi subcaste is dominant . Broadly speaking , these subcastes are the ones spread throughout Rayalaseema - Pakanati , Motati , Kodithi , Pedakanti . Tg - Motati / Pakanati / Gudati / Gone . Coastal - Panta , Pakanati , Pedakanti , Bhumanchi , Desuri . These are called Motati Kapu , Pakanati Kapu , Panta Kapu etc . Reddy community is actually Kapu in the traditional sense , Reddy is just used as a reference to avoid confusion in the modern parlance . Reddy history refers to Motati Kapu / Pakanati Kapu / Panta Kapu history . All reddy cms or famous ministers ( like all your present reddy ministers ) are all kapus only . Of these , Pakanati , Motati and Pedakanti are most numerous in that order .

    Vijaya nagaram, gajapati, bobbili , kakatiya kingdoms laga entha mandiki telusu ivi . Telugu , kannada,odiya antallenu eeda. Raajyalu ani seppukone size lu gani history gani ledu kada. Ballari la anni castes unnayi from that era. Again, reddy caste kadu, ledu. Ipudu kotha ga create cheskunte evadu aapadu kooda. oka G.o tho ni , given their political clout. Govt caste certificates naku telsina varaki ithe kapu ane vastadi , even though saana mandi CMs unna kooda. it was never changed to reddy. Yes, true . It is a title, though i beg to differ on the percentage. Many other castes were dissuaded through out the decades not to use that tilte. Seema la okka Ananthapur la ne kurabollu , balijollu saana mandi ki untunde. Kadapa lo vempalli suttu pakkala malollu, konni constituncies la gollollu, chittor rural la kammollu ki konni generations nundi reddy title undi konni families ki . Coastal side konni famnilies ki "Reddi " ani inti peru la untadi, adi kooda title ee. Koppula elamollu, setti balijollu untaru majority. Vellalo kontha mandi HYD move ayyaka reddy, rao ane sepukontaru, rapichukontaru. Konda reddi iga entirely different adi godvari area la. "I have never seen another o.c guy use reddy title in my entire life." Idi major cause of confusion , classification chesepudu anni kulallo unna reddy title holders ni oka class or caste kinda teeskunnaru and everybody enjoyed it given it was ruling class. Kontha mandi proud ga title petkunnaru kani kulam vadulkoledu , just like raghuveera batch. Kurabollu ipatiki SKD vallode ani septharu ATPR and in karnataka, Mangalore la diff. versions mall Bunt etc.

    Kondavaidu and rajamundry Reddy kingdom are independant kingdoms.gajapathi kingdom is a feudatory to odia gajapati kingdom and then to Britishers and Mughals ,bobbili were feudatories to Vijayanagara kingdom and then to Mughals and Britishers ,they were samsthanams just like wanarpathy or gadwal not independant kingdoms. Vijayanagara empire isn't even telugu empire. Reddy caste today is mostly is 14 kaapu subcastes divided from original panta kaapu.those subcastes themselves have divided into some subcastes .in addition some other groups were added to form the reddy caste. Only reddy kingdom and recherla kingdom were independant. Reddy title is 95% mostly used by these subcastes only ,the others are mostly some regional b.c castes like reddika in coastal andhra ,palli reddies near tirupati area(they are tamil vanias not even telugu) I have never seen another o.c guy use reddy title in my entire life.
