Mayiladuthurai BROTHER MENTOR MAYILADUTHURAI Mayiladuthurai (formerly known as Mayavaram or Mayuram) is a major town in Mayiladuthurai district in Tamil Nadu. Mayiladuthurai gets its name from the Mayura or Mayil (peacock) form in which the Hindu goddess Parvathi worshipped the Hindu god Shiva at this place. While previously known by its Sanskrit name Mayuram meaning peacock town , the town has been recently de-Sanskritized to its Tamil translation Mayiladuthurai“ as a result of” a petition by the Mayuram municipality to the Government of Tamil Nadu in the wake of the Dravidian Movement Mayiladuthurai is known for the Mayuranathaswami Temple, a prominent Shaivite shrine. It is well connected by road and rail transport. Mayiladuthurai serves as a junction in main line connecting Chennai with Trichy. HISTORY Mayiladuthurai is of significant antiquity, its oldest extant temples dating to the time of the Medieval Cholas. The region, however, is known to have been inhabited since the 3rd millennium BC. Sherds of megalithic black and red ware have been found at Akkur, 14 km (8.7 mi) to the east of Mayiladuthurai. In 2006, artifacts with Indus Valley signs dated between 2000 and 1500 BC were found at the nearby village of Sembiyankandiyur.There have been references to Mayiladuthurai in the works of the 7th century Saivite saint Sambandar. The Thanjavur Nayak king Raghunatha Nayak constructed mandapams in Mayiladuthurai. During the 17th and 18th centuries AD, Mayiladuthurai was ruled by the Thanjavur Marathas who invited Brahmins from the Telugu, Kannada and Maratha countries to settle in the region and gave large extents of land to them. 1 BROTHER MENTOR In 1799, Mayiladuthurai, was ceded to the British East India Company, along with the rest of the Thanjavur Maratha kingdom, by the Thanjavur Maratha ruler Serfoji II. Mayiladuthurai prospered under British rule emerging as an important town in Tanjore district. Carnatic musicians Madurai Mani Iyer and Gopalakrishna Bharathi and Samuel Vedanayagam Pillai, who wrote the first Tamil novel Prathapa Mudaliar Charithram were connected with Mayiladuthurai while Tamil writer Kalki Krishnamurthy, M.S.Udhaya Moorthy studied at the Municipal High School in Mayiladuthurai. When the Tanjore district was trifurcated in 1991, Mayiladuthurai was transferred to the newly formed Nagapattinam district.

Phone : +91 4365 248998 - Fax : +91 4365 247513 Email : [email protected] - Web : www.avvai.org Avvai Village Welfare Society Message from the Secretary Dear All , We are happy to place before our associates, friends and well-wishers the facts about our dedicated work as Annual Report of Avvai for the year 2012-13. Our programmes currently address issues of violence against children, women and elders, adverse impact of climate change, addiction, child health, nutrition, watershed and livelihood. Through Childline-1098, every month we are able to extend our supportive services to morethan 50 children in need of care and protection. 1280 children are covered under sponsorship and 450 children are enjoying preschool education. We hope and trust, our rationale approaches and programme strategies will be a model for the like minded institutions to adopt in their field. This year we have given special focus to climate change adaptation and thereby succeeded on addressing adverse impact of climate change by implementing pilot projects.. Natural hazards by themselves do not cause disasters. It is a combination of an exposed, vulnerable and ill-prepared population with a hazard event that results in a disaster. Hence, we have focused on capacity building of the community and along with them addressed the climatic issues such as salinity of land, water scarcity and sea water intrusion by pilot projects. This great success would not have been possible without the perseverant and dedicated efforts put up by the Avvai team and guidance received from the Members of the Governing and Executive Board.
