Machiraju Family Tree Machiraju Family
MACHIRAJU FAMILY • The origin of Niyogi community is descending from their Bramhin ancestors originally from Northern as well as North Western geographical region of present day India. • Niyogi = a derivative of word 'Niyogimpabadda' in Telugu which means appointed). Niyogin in Sanskrit means "employed" or "appointed" and it is quite probable that "Niyogi"s were given this name because they accept secular employment. 2
MACHIRAJU FAMILY • Many theories exists about the origin of Aruvela Niyogis • About six thousand (6000) exceptionally intelligent, extremely capable of administration, management with high degree of skills of warfare were chosen to help Kshatryias in desperate need in defending the country • Hence the name of Aruvela Niyogis.
MACHIRAJU FAMILY In the later centuries they migrated to various parts of the country and the world in pursuit of better and Green pastures. They belong to the brahma-kshatriya group who took secular duties like the military and administration
MACHIRAJU FAMILY Another Theory is Some part of Krishna Dist,Guntur Dist and the surrounding areas was called as "AAru vela naadu".As these people belong to that area,they were called so as Aruvela Niyogis. (Recently we learnt that a village habitat by name Machirajukunta exists in Pedaravidu mandal of Prakasam district. We have to explore this for more details.) • Another belief is that 6000 brahmins once left out some area in and around "vishakhapattanam and the surrounding Samsthanams". So they were called as Aaruvela niyogulu.
MACHIRAJU FAMILY Another theory asserts that 6000 Brahmins left drought- and famine-stricken regions of present-day Maharashtra and traveled to coastal and riverine regions of Andhra. These Brahmin settlers and their descendants, who adopted secular vocations, were termed the 6000 (or Aruvela) Niyogi. Many surnames among Maharashtra Brahmins and Aruvela Niyogis are common (or similar): this fact is considered by many to support for this theory of migration.
MACHIRAJU FAMILY According to Narasimha Shastry Nori, 6000 Brahmins were appointed as village heads and accountants and training imparted to them, way back in 13th or 14th century AD Among Aruvela Niyogis, Machiraju is the biggest group having four Gothrams. Though we are not able to get historical records of Family trees, an attempt is made to record the existing information for the posterity’
