Dewan Bahadur P. Srinivasa Rao (alternative spellings: Shrinivasa, Sreenevas, Srinavas, etc.) was a Judge in the Court of Small Causes in Madras. He won the Subba Row Medal in 1885.

Judge Srinivasa Rao received a consoling letter from Master K.H. through the Shrine when Mme. Blavatsky was away at Ootacamund. About this, the Hodgson Report publishes his statement, saying that:

He had asked Madame Coulomb to be allowed to see the Shrine, had managed to do so on the following evening, and that Madame Coulomb could not in the interval have written to Madame Blavatsky, and received a Mahatma letter in time for his visit, which had occurred while Madame Blavatsky was at Ootacamund; and it was impossible to give any consistent account of these incidents without its clearly appearing that Madame Coulomb had charge of the keys during Madame Blavatsky's absence, as was no doubt actually the case.[1]

P. Srinivasa Rao was present on the morning of June 24, 1890, when T. Subba Row attended his "last worldly business" before he died.[2]
