Dharmavaram

OFFICIAL CENSUS FIGURE: the Census of India 2011 Provisional Population Totals table 'Cities having population 1 lakh and above' (p. 11) lists this town as 'Dharmavaram (M)' with a total population of 121,992. That official figure is carried in the population field. CONFLICT: the district Wikipedia article's ULB table gives 121,874 for the same 2011 census year - the difference is understood to be municipal/corporation boundary versus the boundary used in the provisional tabulation, but no source reconciling the two could be retrieved, so both are recorded. Urban local body merged with its mandal-headquarters record. Civic status per the official CDMA ULB directory (listed as 'DHARMAVARAM', grade code 'Selection' = Selection Grade Municipality). Wikipedia's district article states 'Municipality'. 2011 population 121,874 is as published by Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sri_Sathya_Sai_district); no live official census URL for this town could be retrieved, so the population figure is medium-confidence even though the civic status is official. Revenue division: Dharmavaram. The mandal name is from the official district portal; the grouping into revenue divisions is from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sri_Sathya_Sai_district, because the official portal's mandal table is not explicitly grouped by division. Division assignment is therefore medium-confidence. Official portal https://srisathyasai.ap.gov.in/revenue-divisions/ lists 5 revenue divisions (Puttaparthi, Penukonda, Kadiri, Dharmavaram, Madakasira). Madakasira revenue division was formed on 31 December 2025 per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sri_Sathya_Sai_district. SOURCE CONFLICT on counts: the same portal's https://srisathyasai.ap.gov.in/mandal/ prose says 'Sri Satyasai District Consists of 29 Mandals' yet its own table numbers 32 mandals, and https://srisathyasai.ap.gov.in/demography/ reports 29 revenue mandals and only 3 revenue divisions. This dataset carries the 32 mandals tabulated on the official portal.
