History

After Vengi Chalukyas rule in kolletikota.During 13-15th century, Kolletikota was ruled by Gajapati king, Langula Narasimha Deva (a Suryavanshi Vaddi king). His fort was located at Kolletikota.His enemy Muhammadin encamped at chigurukota. In some ways Kolleru lake protected the Gajapati force.Then the enemy dug a channel known as upputeru so kolleru lake water empties into sea and they can enter kolletikota. The odiya force army general Ambadevaraya sacrificed his own daughter and hence, the channel was named as Perantala Kanama. In later period, the progeny of Gajapati settled at Kolletikota and surroundings. They were called as Vaddi's.[3][4]
