Here's an introduction for Potti Sreeramulu: Potti Sreeramulu, a name written in the books of Indian history, was a very loyal freedom fighter and a key person in making Andhra Pradesh. He was born on 16 March 1901. He gave his life to help India become free and to change how India was organized by language. He was very true to the ideas of Gandhi, which changed what he did. This made him a symbol of giving to others and giving up things for a good cause. Before he became an activist, he worked with the South Indian Railway. Later, he chose to help others. He became very involved in the freedom movement. He took part in events like the Salt Satyagraha in 1930. He was also put in jail many times for helping India become free. But, Sreeramulu's most important work came after India got its freedom. He started a fast where he would not eat until he died, starting on 19 October 1952. He wanted a separate state for people who spoke Telugu. This was a fight that showed how much people wanted to decide things for themselves based on language. He gave up his life, dying on 15 December 1952. This caused many protests and finally led to the making of Andhra Pradesh on 01 October 1953. This event had a big effect and helped other Indian states be reorganized by language. He is often called "Amarajeevi" (Immortal Being). What he did shows the power of not using violence and how important language is to who you are.
