KURNOOL: Palegar Venkatappa Naidu was involved in faction feuds, which claimed at least 200 lives in the last three decades.
More than half the Boya community is involved in faction feuds in Pathikonda, Dhone and Alur areas of the district and Naidu's family is one of them.
Boyas were Palegar (local kings) during the reign of Sri Krishnadevaraya. Naidu became sarpanch of his native village of Kappatralla in Devanakonda mandal at the age of 27 years.
He was closely associated with Telugu Desam Party leader KE Krishna Murthy. To counter this, his rivals joined former chief minister Kotla Vijayabhaskar Reddy's group.
Both groups attacked each other at regular intervals. In one such major attack in 1980 in Kurnool, rivals almost stabbed Naidu to death and left him on the road thinking that he was dead. Naidu was rescued by Krishna Murthy's father K E Madanna who rushed him to hospital.
Rivals attacked his house at least half-a-dozen times with bombs and other weapons. In one such incident six years ago, Naidu's men killed eight attackers when the latter hurled bombs at their leader in front of his house.
Naidu's body bore several scars caused in several attacks by his rivals, and he was said to be fond of displaying them to anyone who was curious to know his factional background. His rivals Varam Muni Rangadu and Yerukali Kistanna were killed in police encounters while Rangappa Naidu was murdered by Venkatappa Naidu's men in 1998.
Muni Rangadu's sister Varam Padma and her family members, who were away from the village for the last two decades, returned in 2005. Yerukali Kistanna's followers and relatives took shelter in Kodumuru and other villages. Padma and Madduleti Naidu joined hands against Venkatappa Naidu and made all-out efforts to check his power.
According to Veeresam, an eyewitness to the Saturday's incident, Madduleti Naidu personally took part in the killing.
Police suspect that Madduleti Naidu was helped by Yerukali Kistanna's relatives in the attack. Venkatappa Naidu moved very closely with several top leaders of the state.
Chief minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy knew him personally. Reddy, while he was in opposition, revealed this when rivals attacked Naidu in 2001.
Venkatappa Naidu moved with Kotla Vijayabhaskar Reddy for a short period when the latter was chief minister.
