On the auspicious occasion of Polera Amavasya (Sunday, 21-09-2025), we share the sacred story of Poleramma with our community.

Poleramma and Mahankali are sisters. This is the traditional story of Poleramma's seven daughters-in-law, the Vrata (religious observance), and the blessings the goddess bestowed upon those who observed the Vrata with devotion and purity.

Those who observe this Vrata and listen to this story will be blessed with wealth, prosperity, children and grandchildren, and will live happily. Whoever wears the sacred thread (sutra/torana) of the goddess will receive her blessings and live happily with their family, free from hardship.

One hundred crore salutations to Poleramma Thalli from all of us.

Sistakaranam Foundation India Chairman MSK had the opportunity to meet Sri Konatala Ramakrishna Garu, a prominent leader of the Jana Sena Party, at a Jana Sena Party programme.

This meeting reflects the Foundation's continued commitment to building strong relationships with political leadership for the betterment and recognition of the Sistakaranam community.

Sistakaranam Foundation India believes that political growth is the path to social recognition, and such interactions with leaders like Sri Konatala Ramakrishna Garu are a step forward in that direction.

Heartfelt Birthday Greetings to Our Community Gem! 💐

Today is the birthday of Sri Behera Bhaskarrao.

He is a role model for those who aspire to grow politically. An entrepreneur who turned his own family name into a brand. A person who always stands at the forefront when it comes to service.

He is someone who, last month on the 23rd, achieved what many had considered impossible for a long time — a true modern-day Chanakya.

He is a guiding star for the presence and identity of the Sistakaranam community in North Andhra.

By establishing hospitals and educational institutions, he is providing value-based education to future generations and building a new society rooted in strong values. He has made healthcare accessible to the poor and truly lived up to the saying — Vaidyo Narayana Hari.

We extend our warmest birthday greetings to our community gem, Sri Behera Bhaskarrao, and pray to the Almighty to bless him with a long life of 100 years, filled with good health and happiness.

Warm and heartfelt greetings to all respected members of the Sistakaranam community! 🙏

This morning, at the divine presence of Sri Sri Sri Tridandi Chinna Jiyar Swami at Mucchintala, Shamshabad, Hyderabad, a historic and extraordinary moment unfolded — one that deserves to be written in golden letters in the history of the entire Sistakaranam community.

Our Akhila Bharata Sistakaranam Sangham (AISKA) has, over the past several years, brought together Sistakaranam families scattered across the nation onto a single platform, championing unity; worked tirelessly for the preservation of our culture and traditions, and to nurture our values among the youth; stood firmly beside poor and middle-class families through educational, medical, and matrimonial platforms; and successfully organised grand programmes including the Centenary Celebrations.

Recognising this relentless, selfless, and dedicated service, the world-renowned The Wonder Book of Records (International) selected AISKA for an International Award — a matter of immense pride for the entire Sistakaranam community.

This prestigious award was presented to our beloved AISKA President Sri Dabbiru Krishna Rao Sistakaranam, at the divine hands of Parama Pujya Sri Sri Sri Tridandi Chinna Jiyar Swami, amidst Vedic chanting.

Participants: Sri D.V. Ramamurthy (AISKA Vice President), Smt Rama Krishna Rao (SWA President), Sri Tirupatirao, Sri Harigopal, Sri Venkateswarrao, Sri Suman, Sri Madhu, Sri Naveen, Smt Gopi Ratnam, Smt Padma, Sri Murali, Sri Mahipal, Smt Swapna, and Sri Narender (Wonder Book of Records All India Co-ordinator).

This honour belongs to every son and daughter of the Sistakaranam community.

Sri Dabbiru Krishna Rao, AISKA

The Anna Samaradhana (community feast) organised by Sistakaranam Foundation India as part of the Vinayaka Chavithi Mahostavam was inaugurated by Sri Kuppili Srikanth (AGM at NTPC) and Dr Venkumahanthi Krishna Kishor — Prominent Children's Specialist (son of late Sri Deveswarrao).

Around 200 people were served prasadam (Anna Danam) today. Leaders from various community organisations, caste association heads, and community well-wishers participated enthusiastically and made this programme a grand success.

Our heartfelt thanks to all the donors whose blessings and financial support made it possible to serve every family member who attended, without any interruption, with the Lord's prasadam.

Today, we reached out to a deeply needy family from Kottapalem–Gopalpatnam. The wife of late Sri Kantimahanthi Vijay Kumar suffers from a mental illness and lives with her daughters in a small rented house. The family's breadwinner passed away suddenly, leaving the family in a dire situation.

Their elder daughter is in the final year of her Polytechnic studies. The younger daughter secured a Computer Science seat at Andhra University but is in a position where she cannot even afford the fee. She is managing by teaching tuitions at home to continue her education.

Moved by their situation, we immediately arranged and disbursed ₹5,000 — the funds collected so far from donors through our Bhasuri Seva Sangham — as emergency support for this family.

Participants: Sri Dashamantri Naresh Patnaik, Sri Behera Ravi and wife, Sri Pakki Shekhar, Sri Manapuram Suresh.

Heartfelt thanks to all donors who made this support possible.

Sri Naresh Patnaik, Dashamantri (a prominent leader), resident of Hyderabad, visited the Vinayaka mandapam set up by Sistakaranam Foundation at its head office near Marripalem Highway, Visakhapatnam.

He had come to Visakhapatnam on the morning of 17th September for the Cricket Tournament being organised on the 19th of this month. We had earlier invited him for our Anna Samaradhana programme on 20th September, but since he was unable to attend on that day, he expressed his wish to visit the mandapam and we welcomed him warmly to our Foundation office.

Accompanying him were Sri Basuri Srinivasarao and Sri Pakki Shekhar Patnaik.

Sri Naresh Patnaik was honoured with a shawl and a memento presented at the hands of our respected mother, Smt Manapuram Rajalakshmi.
