SALIENT FEATURES OF THE DISTRICT

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF THE DISTRICT

Sivaganga District was a part of old District.

The old played a dominant role in the history of

South India. In the early centuries, Ramanathapuram District formed part of Pandian Kingdom till the end of the 15 th Century. After the fall of

Nayaks, two of the Polygars viz Sethupathy of Ramanathapuram and Rajas of Sivaganga became prominent rulers of this part. Towards the middle of

18 th Century the Europeans namely French, British entered into this part.

The Sethupathy of Ramanathapuram lost his personal freedom and the

British took control of the administration of Ramanathapuram in 1795. It was converted into a Zamindari in 1803 and Mangaleswari Natchiar became the first zamindar. During this period, the Raja of Sivaganga also revolted against the British. The famous Maruthu Brothers, Periya

Marudhu and Chinna Marudhu assisted the Raja of Sivaganga in the revolts against the British. After the death of the Raja of Sivaganga

(Muthu Vaduganadhar), the queen passed on the sovereignty to Marudhu

Brothers, who ruled Sivaganga peacefully and devoted on payment of regular revenue to the East India Company in 1801.

The Marudhu Brothers of Sivaganga revolted against the British in collaboration with Kattabomman of Panchalankurichi. However, the two brothers were captured by the British and were hanged at Thirupattur on 1.10.1801. The British installed Gowri Vallabh Periya Udayar as

Zamindar of Sivaganga. Finally in 1895, a British Collector was appointed to administer the territory of Ramanathapuram district by carving out portions from and Districts and Madurai as the Head

Quarters of this district till 1985, when it was trifurcated. Perhaps, the old

Ramanathapuram district was the biggest district in Tamil Nadu.

Pasumpon Muthuramalingam District came into existence on

15.3.1985, as a consequent of the trifurcation of Ramanathapuram District.
