This became one of the defining moments in his life. It meant that he went from a Telugu medium school to an English medium one, and from Class 3 to Class 7. Rather than be discouraged by the radical changes this brought, he chose to face it with what would go on to become his trademark acceptance of the most difficult challenges. With sheer hard work and determination, he graduated with an MA from Presidency College, Madras at the age of 20 and entered the Delhi School of Economics to prepare for the Indian Administrative Service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis father, his role model, was his inspiration to enter the administrative service. India was still a young country and its bureaucrats were among those who built the nation’s foundation. Kumaraswamy Reddy served Andhra Pradesh state for 37 years. Two key postings were as Collector, Krishna district, during the peak of the Andhra agitation and as the 9th Executive Officer of the TTD (Tirumala Tirupathi Devasthanams).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe has been busier since retiring from the civil service, applying his deep interest and vast experience in public health on account of which he was a consultant for the World Bank's Health division. Further, he has set up the Indo German Advanced Technology for skill development at Visakhapatnam. When the pandemic forced him indoors, he used the time to write his autobiography. Written chronologically, it’s as much the story of one bureaucrat’s life as it is a window into the workings of Indian bureaucracy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Five Morsels Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42871488184458,"sku":"","price":600.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0608\/7308\/0970\/products\/Photo27-03-23_10602PM.jpg?v=1679942700"},{"product_id":"వనిత-వంటకాలు-మొదటి-సంపుటి-శాకాహార-వంటలు-vanita-vantakalu-vol-1-vegetarian-recipes","title":"వనిత వంటకాలు – మొదటి సంపుటి, శాకాహార వంటలు | Vanita Vantakalu - Vol 1:Vegetarian Recipes","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLanguage: Telugu\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVolume 1 of 3\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMore than 90 vegetarian recipes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e50th anniversary edition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1976లో తెలుగింటి సంప్రదాయ రుచులను ప్రపంచానికి పరిచయం చేయాలనే ఆశయంతో, ఒక మహిళ తన వంటల పుస్తకాన్ని రచించి స్వయంగా ప్రచురించారు.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eజి. నిర్మలా రెడ్డి రచించిన \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eవనిత వంటకాలు\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e తరతరాల తెలుగు పాఠకుల ఆదరణ పొంది, 15,000 ప్రతులకు పైగా \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eఅమ్ముడుపోయి\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, ఒక క్లాసిక్ గా నిలిచింది. నాలుగు దశాబ్దాల పాటు ముద్రణలో లేకపోయినా, పాఠకుల హృదయాల్లో ప్రత్యేక స్థానాన్ని నిలుపుకుంది.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eఇప్పుడు, 50వ వార్షికోత్సవ సందర్భంగా, పాఠకుల సౌలభ్యం కోసం \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eవనిత వంటకాలు\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e మూడు భాగాలుగా అందించబడుతోంది. వాటిలో ఇది మొదటి సంపుటి.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e90కి పైగా శాకాహార వంటకాలు—\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eకరకరలాడే వేపుడ్లు, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eనోరూరించే కూరలు, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eపప్పులు, పులుసులు, చారులు, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eఅన్నంతో పలు రకాలు, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eవివిధ ప్రాంతాల వైవిధ్య రుచులు!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eరోజువారీ భోజనం నుంచి ప్రత్యేక వేడుకల వరకూ… తరతరాలుగా నిలిచే రుచి సంపద… \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eప్రతి ఇంట్లో ఉండవలసిన అమూల్యమైన వారసత్వ వంటల పుస్తకం.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn 1976, a woman from Andhra Pradesh wrote and self-published a cookbook for the everyday kitchen.
