History

Narayanpet was a major economic town in the region during the 1900s. Business flourished during the Lokapally establishment. Major goods traded in Narayanpet were food grains, silk and cotton sarees, gold and silver ornaments, red bricks and black wool. Narayanpet was also a Suba in the Nizam period, and was the first municipality in the former Mahaboobnagar district. Despite being a major commercial town, development in Narayanpet was largely delayed due to administrative faults, political negligence and lack of interest from the leaders.
