Nearly 800 years back when Palanati war was look place where in between Nayakurlu Nagamma and Brahma Naidi Sri Thiruveedhi Narayana Das and his two brothers with their families taken away the idol of Sri Chennekesava Swamy in 1280 A.D to Simhachalam, Visakhapatnam district via Nuzivedu. These families used to bag alms in their way to Simhachalam. After knowing that the peaceful conditions previled in Palnadu are these priests made return journey to Palnadu, while coming back they have reached this Uppaluru and stayed for a day.
