 Please refer to the third line of the second paragraph. In Telugu ""Putrika"" means daughter. Rudrama Devi was brought up as a son. The birth of a son is celebrated as ""Suputra Jananam"" ceremony, not ""Putrika Ceremony"". Jolly, Julius being an Englishman might not have understood the difference.
