Cherukupalle mandal

Cherukupalle mandal is an administrative unit in Bapatla district with flat terrain and low elevation in southeastern India. The area encompasses multiple small settlements distributed across various local administrative units.

The administrative unit was created in 1985 when the government established new local structures to improve governance in the region. This reorganization was part of broader administrative reforms across Andhra Pradesh.

The region is traditionally Telugu-speaking, with several small villages and local administrative units that reflect the regional language patterns of Andhra Pradesh. These local communities continue to shape the character of the area today.

The area is primarily agricultural, so the best time to visit is outside the main harvest seasons when roads are more accessible. The flat terrain makes traveling easy, even though public transport options may be limited.

The area experienced a raid on the local police station by naxalite groups in 1975, roughly a decade before the mandal structure was officially established. This event marked a period of social unrest in the region.
