[edit] History

The name originates from Mared Palle, which roughly means the name of a village, it was a rule of Yadavs who used to be the landlords of the whole area but in the early 70s it was inhabited by a few but different people ranging from Tamils and Costal andhras, but most of these people were living in a suburban heaven far from the maddening crowd and which was very beautiful and had lots of lush vegetation and was a haven for morning walkers and older people looking for some peace and quiet.

It is now more cosmopolitan with Punjabis, Gujaratis, north Indians and also as a place that had the most beautiful parks and a culturally diverse population, a majority belonging to the telugu, tamil and malayali community.

In the 90s Soon as urbanization came, it brought along with it a sudden charge of destruction of old ancestral houses that stood there for about 40 to 50 years and the construction of apartment complexes the erstwhile suburb became the hustling bustling hub of urban Hyderabad leaving little place for the very poor that lived next door in Addagutta. Today the land rates in Marredpally are really steep and people either very rich or people who refuse to leave their erstwhile suburban heaven.
