Tradition: Donation to the library as dowry in engagement

The facility has hosted notable visitors, including British Officer Lord TG Rutherford in 1929 and Union Minister G Kishan Reddy during the library’s 125-year celebrations in 2022. Additionally, noted Telugu singer Ghantasala Venkateswara Rao had spent two years in Kumudavalli and learned music during his childhood.

Kumudavalli has produced several prominent individuals, including industrialists Padma Shri BV Raju, Sagi Krishnam Raju, and Bhupathiraju Suryanarayana Raju. Nagendra Varma noted that the library has ample funds and plans are underway to digitise its collection for future generations. The building was constructed in 1985 and inaugurated by then-Governor Kumudben Joshi.

Varma urged State and national leaders to visit the library, “Which continues to inspire the youth and uphold the village’s legacy of learning,” he added.
