The workers, whoare mostly Padma Sales, Thogatas and a few Musalmansare, like the weavers of many other villages in the west ofthis taluk, employed by Tadpatri merchants who supply themwith yarn and pay them piece-work wages. The betterkinds of cloths woven in this and neighbouring villages aresaid to be exported to Hubli, Dharwar, Gulburga and otherdistant places.Near the village to the west are two Musalman tombsconcerning which a queer story is told. One of these tombsis dedicated to a certain Caliph and the other to his rat. It issaid that the Caliph used to pass all his time in a masjid nearhis house saying prayers. The rat used to supply him withprovisions every day. It happened once that the Caliph’s ratwent to a Musalman’s house and devoured some food that hadbeen prepared for him. The Musalman in a rage struck atthe rat with a stick and killed it. Alarmed at what he haddone and fearing the wrath of the Caliph, he went to theCaliph and told him what had happened, showing him thecorpse of his beloved rat. The Caliph was so horrified at thesight that he immediately expired. The heinousness of hissin so weighed on the Musalman’s mind that he erected twotombs side by side, one to the Caliph and the other to his rat.The tombs are still maintained by the Musalman’s descend-ants who live close by. సర్పంచులు 1934 నుండి 2001 వరకు మిట్ట కుటుంబీకులు 67 ఏళ్లపాటు నిరవధికంగా గ్రామానికి సర్పంచులుగా, ఏకగ్రీవంగా ఎన్నికయ్యారు. మిట్టా మల్లారెడ్డి (1934 – 1952) మిట్టా చిన్నమల్లారెడ్డి (1952 – 1981) మిట్టా చిన్న అంకిరెడ్డి (1981 – 2001) ఆదినారాయణ యాదవ్ (2001 – 2005) ఏ. రమాదేవి (2005 – ప్రస్తుతం)
