Mangalagiri is a town and a mandal of Guntur District of Andhra Pradesh,
India. Mangalagiri is a part of Vijayawada. It is situated on the
Vijayawada-Guntur road, 8 miles (13km) to the south-east of Vijayawada and 13
miles (21 km) to the north-east of Guntur city. Mangalagiri means the holy
hill. Near the foot of the stone flight of steps is a stone pillar with a
telugu inscription, recording grants of villages. It is dated to 1520 and
mentions the capture of Kondavidu by Timmarasu, general of Krishna Deva Raya.
In the 1970s there was huge water scarcity in mangalagiri. Goli Gopala
Rao, then the municipal chairman of Mangalagiri, brought water to the town
through water pipelines and he was called Apara Baghiratha due to his services
to the public. As the location of the town is etched amidst well developed
cities of Guntur and vijaywada, the real estate business has gone to peaks. The
future capital of Andhra Pradesh is also proposed around Mangalagiri.
The Centre has given a new lease of life to the struggling mangalagiri
handloom sector by granting Geographical indication (GI) status. The AP state
government applied for the GI status for mangalagiri handlooms and fabrics
about 3 years ago and finally secured it. The GI status is specific recognition
granted to the product which would bar others from using that name.
Manglagiri handlooms and fabrics have already secured a logo registered
for the product and grant of GI would further help boost the market. According
to loca master weavers, presently Mangalagiri handlooms and fabrics have an
annual turnover of just Rs.10 crore and it could easily make a business of
Rs.50 crore in a couple of years from now.

The looms used in Mangalgiri are mostly pit looms. Pit looms are looms
which are fixed in the ground level and there will be a pit in which looms
peddle will be placed and the weaver will sit on the floor and use his hands
and legs to weave. The traditional process of weaving is left. Now a day, the
jacquard is used and cards with punched holes are inserted and placed
appropriately to get the required designs of the cloth. Zari is wound in small
bobbins and it is used only for the border. The woven yarn cloth is then cut
according to the requirement of the goods and it is folded and sent for
inspection to the master weaves. The handlooms in mangalgiri are famous for the
