We list people only when a reliable source places them in the region. Still checking: athletics coach Nagapuri Ramesh (Dronacharya Award 2016), poet Potlapally Rama Rao, freedom fighter Akkinepalli Thirupathi, lyricists Kasarla Shyam and Mittapalli Surender, and older Padma awardees. Someone missing? Tell us with a source and we'll add them.
