Palnadu district, Administrative district in Andhra Pradesh, India
Palnadu is an administrative territory in Andhra Pradesh made up of three subdivisions containing twenty-eight local units. The entire area is managed from Narasaraopet, a town positioned centrally between farmland plains and smaller settlements.
The area was carved out as a separate unit in April 2022 during a statewide reorganization. Before that, it belonged to larger administrative divisions within Andhra Pradesh.
The name comes from the 12th-century Palnadu wars, which remain alive in regional memory. Rural communities still share stories about the conflicts between rival kingdoms.
Narasaraopet serves as the main access point for public services and has road connections to surrounding towns. Those exploring the region will find separate administrative offices in each of the three subdivisions with local contacts.
Cement plants dot the landscape along main roads, where limestone deposits drive industrial development. Trucks carry raw materials and finished products daily between quarries and production sites.
