'''K. L. Mahendra''' (November 1922 – 12 August 2007) was an [[Indian people|Indian]] trade union leader.

Born in [[Hyderabad]], Mahendra attended [[Osmania University]], where he took part in the Vandemataram strike. He then moved to study at [[Visva-Bharati University]], and finally in Burdwan. In 1942, he joined the [[Communist Party of India]] (CPI), which encouraged him to become a trade unionist. He organised unions in [[Burnpur]] and [[Asansol]] before returning to Hyderabad. He went underground to participate in the [[Telangana Rebellion]], and spent some time in prison in the early 1950s.<ref name="obituary">{{cite journal |title=K. L.

In 1970, Mahendra was elected to the [[Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly]], serving until 1982. In 1984, he was elected as president of the Singareni Collieries Workers Union. From 1996 until 2001, he served as general secretary of the [[All India Trade Union Congress]].
