This
district head quarters town of the same name possesses many holy
temples dedicated to several gods, like Venkateswara, Ranganatha,
Hanuma and Rama, besides Siva, which has the unique glory of
worshipping by the Sun with his luminous rays once a year. This holy
town has once called Indrapuri, which became Indur and later
Nizambad due to impact of Muslim rule. The Venkateswaraswamy Aalayam
here claims the special honour of sending its flag to Tirupathi
every year on a particular occasion, and on its return devotees, who
could not travel to the Tirumala worship it with great ardor. With
these two plus points, it has been luring pious theists for over
centuries. It also houses worshipful Saiva gods in appropriate
niches.
It
lies on the Kachiguda-Manmad Broad guage line, having all
facilities.
