VIZAGAPATAM. lnuganti Rájagópál Rao, however, brought a suit for them, claiming to be the reversionary heir of Ráyadappa, and won his case.1
 * Stands nearly midway between Pálkonda and Párvatípur; population 5,738. Contains the remains of a considerable mud fort, in which are now located the dispensary and the police lines. This was strongly held by Viziaráma Rázu, zamindar of Pálkonda, in the disturbances of 1793-96 above referred to. In February 1795 the Company's troops, which had no guns big enough to effect a breach, were twice repulsed in attacks upon it by escalade. The village does a great trade in leaf-platters, which are sent as far afield as Madras.
