The said Varaha Pushkarani was construc- ted, it is said that the village is named as Akiripalli.
There is a stone epigraph found in thepillar of the Mukhamantapam of the Sri Malleswara swamivari temple, on the Indrakila hill at Vijayawada, which gives the tale of this Pushkarani.
It is stated that one Malagunta Koonisetty who raised a loan of twelve hundred Tankams from one Sri Kumara Telungu Rayalu by giving a third party security of one Pinakuna Batchabattudu constructed Akiripalli.
He failed to repay the amount within the stipulated period
and therefore the matter was brought before the public of Suravaram to decide.
As per the decision given by Suravaram Panchayat, Koonisetty had to execute a palm-leaf document for the original sum and had to dedicate his Sukritams and Tirtha Phalams to Batchabattudu.
