Raikal It is located in the Jagtial district, Telangana, India[1]

It is known for being the home place of the ancient temple of Keshavanathaswamy, which was built in 1304 A.D. by Kakatiya King Prataparudra and is called as Kota Gudi, due to the mud fort that surrounds the temple. The temple is a trikutalayam which houses three sanctums for Shiva and Vishnu, and resembles the typical Chalukyan and Kakatiya architectural styles.[citation needed]
