Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Yerradoddipalli is a small village in Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh state in India. Yerradoddi palli is a village that borders Mahal town. Agriculture is primary occupation for most people. There is a Sri Rama temple in the heart of the village. The temple was constructed by Late Smt.Akkayamma. The temple though is not very old, but has good tradition. People from the village perform 'chakka Bhajana' at the temple during harvest season to show their respect to God. Chakka Bhajana is a beautiful and rhythmic dance where people do a coordinated dance with sticks and sing along. This dance is a treat to watch and hear the authentic folk songs. It is, however, sad that the art is losing its sheen as more people migrate towards towns. Many people in the village keep their surname as yerradoddi. Some of the prominent people from the village include former Panchayat Presidents Sri Yerradoddi Papi Reddy, Sri Yerradoddi Gangi Reddy.
