INAM TO YANAM

the name `Inam' was changed into Yanam(Yanaon) by the French in the course of time. People say that this region was presented to Mr. Bussy, the French General by a Vijayanagara King as a token of gratitude for the help rendered by Mr. Bussy in the fight against the rulers of Bobbili.  We can se his street named after `Bussy' here.  It s beleived that Bussy had stayed in a certain building in this street.
