Duvvuru

Duvvuru is a very small town in Kadapa District, Andhra Pradesh, India. It is located on the highway of Kadapa and Kurnool, very near to Mydukur. The Brahma Sagar project of Telugu Ganga is near this town.

This town is well known for underdevelopment. Duvvur, being a mandal from Indian independence to modern day, has registered no development. This can be epitomized by the fact that this town has no bus stand or railway station. Most basic facilities are missing in this town, so this may not be the best place to settle.

This area is well known for cultivation of papayas and other fruits like bananas, which are exported to Mumbai and other second-tier cities in India. The main point of interest about Duvvuru is that it is near the village Ram Sai Nagar, which will be a stop on the Duvvur-Gudipadu Ringroad, so it is an ideal location. This village is named after the large Sai temple which receives many funds from Sai trust but they are not using properly. Actually the temple was constructed with the collaboration of the people in the village, but now they are collecting money for simple puja and no person will avoid this because he is a landlord. Pedda Jonnavaram(which is located beside "kundu" river.) is well developed village in Duvvur mandal, it has its own drinking water facility and has good road in each lane of this village.Pedda Jonnavaram is well known to grow rice.This village is connected to kada-kurnool hiway to Proddatur.

There is an old bungalow here built by Britishers; it is still in use today.
