The Settibalija, also known as the Chettibalija, Ediga, Settiga, Settikula, or Indra, are a subgroup of the Balija social group in India. Many live in the East and West Godavari districts of Andhra Pradesh [1] In 2002, they were designated as Backward Classes in the positive discrimination scheme established by the Government of India for educational and economically disadvantaged groups.[2] The Settibalija, along with some other communities such as the Yadavs and Kapus, are one of the dominant communities in the East and West Godavari districts that form the "rice bowl" of the state.[3]
