Delete as this article fails basic verifiability and has no reliable sources. It is unusual to recommend a geographical place for deletion, but this one appears to be a hoax. Much of the text was copied from an earlier version of the Bandarlapalle article. The creator was a one-shot account Mitta palli12345, contributions. I have searched extensively and not found any sources for this place. In the "2001 Census of India: List of Villages by Tehsil: Andhra Pradesh" (PDF). Registrar General & Census Commissioner, India. there was no listing for "Mittapalli" in Chittoor district, and none of the entries under "Ramakuppam" were close. In the 2011 census listing for "NPR Report: Andhra Pradesh: Chittoor: Ramakuppam". there were only two entries under "M": Manendram pop. 1771, and Muddanapalle pop. 2425. There are valid places named "Mittapalli", both in Andhra Pradesh and in Tamil Nadu. There is the kotha, or sub-village, which has a post office (PIN 507167) in Khammam district, not in Chittoor District. "Mittapalli, Khammam" which is in Thallada Mandal, also appears on some maps, "Distance from Khammam to Mittapalli, Khammam"., 17°10'16" N, 80°25'30" E. There is a village named "Mittapally"" in Luxettipet mandal, Adilabad district, Andhra Pardesh, "NPR Report: Andhra Pardesh: Adilabad: Luxettipet".. There is the well-attested Mittapalli in Uthangarai taluk, Krishnagiri district, Tamil Nadu, "NPR Report: Tamil Nadu: Krishnagiri: Uthangarai".. And lastly there is an apparently unrelated Sri Mittapalli College of Engineering, and Sri Mittapalli Institute of Technology for Women, located between Guntur and Chilakaluripet on National Highway 5 at Tummalapalem. However, there is no evidence of a Mittapalli in Chittoor district. I brought this here rather than prodding it, because it was a geographical place. --Bejnar (talk) 22:30, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
