Rudra of Recherla (IAST: Recerla) family, also known as Rudrireddi and Rudra-senani, was a 12th-13th century military commander, administrator and vassal of the Kakatiya kingdom of present-day India. Around 1198 CE, the Kakatiya king Mahadeva was killed in a campaign against the Seunas (Yadavas), and his son Ganapati was captured by the enemy. Rudra administered the kingdom in Ganapati's name, and reinstated him on the throne after his release. Rudra established the Palampet town, and commissioned the Ramappa Temple there.
