Kishan Reddy, welcoming the video message in Telugu, said this was recognition of India’s heritage, culture and traditions. Kishan Reddy tweeted, “On behalf of the people of India, especially the people of Telangana, a heartfelt thank you to Eloundau who spoke well in Telugu.”
The Ramappa Temple, located in the village of Palampet, is the main Shiva temple in a walled complex built during the Kakatiyan period (1123–1323 CE) under rulers Rudradeva and Recharla Rudra.
Construction of the sandstone temple began in 1213 CE and is believed to have continued over some 40 years, according to the list of heritage sites put up on the UNESCO site.
