Ceelam Legends
Promising BEGINNING
SRI. K. MUNUSWAMY NAIDU, was basically an agriculturist and had a passion for it. Born in 1903, Reddiar as he was popularly known was a simple man known for his hospitality, and generous nature. He was affable with all communities and they in turn showered a lot of love and respect on him. When urbanisation started spreading to this region, the agricultural lands owned by him were converted to housing layouts in the name of M.R. Nagar and Sasi Rekhamma Nagar. As he was very keen to see a harmony and proper environment for families getting settled in this housing layout, he put in lot of efforts to ensure that the plots went to the right people by scrutinising the profiles of the purchaser. He was the first President of M.R. Nagar welfare association. He is still remembered for the probity and fidelity shown towards the development of the area where he lived and loved. His noble soul departed on 22-03-1981 leaving behind a good community and like-minded people at M.R. Nagar which we treasure to this day.
