Please add this detail under sub-section with respect to Puja Golla. Of the various sub-divisions, the Pūja Gollas claim superiority over the others. Their origin is traced to Simhādri Rāju, who is supposed to have been a descendant of Yayāthi Rāja of the Mahābaratha. Yayāthi had six sons, the last of whom had a son named Kariyāvala, whose descendants were as follows: — Penubothi (his son). Avula Amurthammayya, I Kalugothi Ganganna. I Oli Raju. I . Simhadri Raju. 1 I . Peddi Erunuka Noranoka Poll Raju. Raju. Raju. Raju, The Gollas are believed to be descended from the four last kings. ​According to another legend, there were five brothers, named Pōli Rāju, Erranoku Rāju, Kātama Rāju, Peddi Rāju, and Errayya Rāju, who lived at Yellamanchili, which, as well as Sarvasiddhi, they built. The Rājas of Nellore advanced against them, and killed them, with all their sheep, in battle. On this, Janagamayya, the son of Peddi Rāju, who escaped the general slaughter, made up his mind to go to Kāsi (Benares), and offer oblations to his dead father and uncles. This he did, and the gods were so pleased with him that they transported him in the air to his native place.

No, they aren't related Indica123 (talk) 12:15, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

They hold surnames such as Naidu in parts of Tamil Nadu especially in Dharmapuri and Krishnagiri Districts. Those surnames are held by them for a very long-time, centuries before independence. Nivethapalraj (talk) 11:40, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

"add A few Krishna Golla's are Telugu speaking community and reside in parts of Krishnagiri District of Tamil Nadu, predominantly in Bargur Taluk. On the fourth day of Makarasankranthi, they pray to Katamaraju the great Yadava King who is also considered to be the direct lineage of Sri Krishna. They also claim to be the clan in which Sri Krishna was born. Hence the name Krishna Golla. A few Krishna Golla gotras are Sasalu, Akshantaya and Bangaru. A few family names are Pandu and Konga."
