🇮🇳 FACTS ABOUT INDIA 🇮🇳
Alluri Sitarama Raju (4 July 1897 or 1898 – 7 May 1924) was an Indian revolutionary who waged an armed campaign against British colonial rule in India.
Born in present-day Andhra Pradesh, he became involved in opposing the British in response to the 1882 Madras Forest Act, which effectively restricted the free movement of Adivasis (tribal communities) in their forest habitats and prevented them from practicing a traditional form of agriculture known as podu.
Rising discontent towards the British led to the Rampa Rebellion of 1922, in which he played a major part as a leader. Mustering a force combined of Adivasis, farmers and sympathizers to their cause, he engaged in guerilla campaigns against the British colonial authorities in the border regions of the Madras Presidency part of the districts of East Godavari and Visakhapatnam (now part of Alluri Sitharama Raju district).
He was nicknamed “Manyam Veerudu” (transl. Hero of the Jungle) by local villagers for his heroic exploits.

The samudra manthana is explained in the Bhagavata Purana, in the Mahabharata and in the Vishnu Purana. The samudra manthana explains the origin of amrita, the nectar of immortality.
During churning of the Ocean of Milk, Mount Mandara was used as the churning rod, and Vasuki, a nāgarāja who abides on Shiva’s neck, became the churning rope. Auras & Devas combindly churned it. Things emerged from Samudramadanam are:-

Shankha : Vishnu’s conch
Lakshmi : the Devi of Fortune and Wealth, who accepted Vishnu as Her eternal consort.
