Nalgonda/Nallagonda(from Nalla-Konda) (Telugu: నల్à°—ొంà°¡/నల్లగొంà°¡, Urdu: نلگونڈا) pronunciation (help·info) is a town and a municipality in Nalgonda district in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. Its name is derived from two Telugu words Nalla (black) and Konda (hills).[1] Nalgonda in the past is referred to as Nilagiri. During the period of Bahamani kingdom, it had been renamed as Nallagonda.[2] Later in Nizam rule, during the later kings rule the name has been transformed in to Nalgonda(for official uses). But in popular culture its called as Nallagonda only. Recently A.P. govt. has changed its name to Nalgonda for convenience(for official purpose). But the popular name, Nallagonda(నల్లగొంà°¡), with which it is referred to by one and all and finds the name frequently even in "Poetry of the famous Telangana Liberation Struggle", should be restored back in view of its history and popular usage. GeographyNalgonda is located at 15.05°N 78.27°E.[3] It has an average elevation of 421 meters (1381 ft). Nalgonda experiences a semiarid climate. Summer temperatures, during the months of March to May, are quite high with the temperature often crossing 40 degrees Celsius. The relative humidity during these months is also quite low although the dry monotony is broken occasionally by thunderstorms on the evenings of hot days. Lighting strikes and hails storms during these thunderstorms sometimes kill farmers and cause damage to crops, especially mangoes. Much of the rainfall though is concentrated in the summer months of June to August, transforming the brown and bleak landscape into lush green. Winters are pleasant with mild temperatures, crisp sunshine, clear blue skies and cool breeze. Much of the soil is of red yellow type. Many areas have deep red soil (locally referred to as "erra mannu") derived from the decomposition of the granitic base rock. Riverine tracts have alluvial soil where rice paddy is grown. Due to the semiarid climate, poor soil and lack of adequate irrigation, dry land farming is widely prevalent. Horticulture is also practiced, there are a number of citrus and mango plantations. Nalgonda TownNalgonda is one of the few district headquarters in AP which are not directly connected to National Highway. This might be a reason for Nalgonda not being a major business center in the District. Neighbouring towns like Miriyalaguda and Suryapeta enjoy more business than Nalgonda. Drought conditions in the district do not favour Nalgonda to develop economically. Despite of all the natural causes, Nalgonda has better internal road network and underwater drainage system (with work currently in progress for 50% of the town). Main source of drinking water is from Nagarjuna Sagar reservoir on the river Krishna. EconomyNalgonda district is major producer of Cement in Andhra Pradesh (AP) due to the availability of lime stone across the borders of Nalgonda district and neighboring Guntur district. the large number of Cement industries. Nalgonda has record number of legal and illegal chit fund companies which lend money at high interest rates. People from nearby villages and local residents approach these lenders to fulfill their urgent needs. Many families rely on salaries and income from small business. Due to the IT boom in India, Nalgonda too reaped fruits from it. Poverty and unemployment is a major problem in the town as well as district. Measures taken by government bodies has thus far failed to create enough jobs in this area.In Nalgonda district town called Miryalaguda is famous for rice mills, most of the economy growing through rice business. EducationAs being district head quarter Nalgonda serves as a hub for primary and secondary education for surrounding villages . Nalgonda has many primary and upper primary schools which offer both Telugu and English as medium of instruction. Many schools operate with basic amenities and under qualified staff. Recent awareness in parents is forcing the school managements to improve their infrastructure. Some schools in old city area like, Millat and Rahmat-e-Allam , do offer Urdu as medium of instruction for existing Muslim community. Nalgonda district has Engineering and Medical colleges and vocational colleges. Prominent streets and colonies
