Talavady taluk

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Talavady taluk is a taluk of Erode district of the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It became a separate taluk within Erode district by the bifurcation of Sathyamangalamon 8 March 2016 along with Modakurichi and Kodumudi taluks.

The new taluk has the control over the same geographic entity of the Talavady revenue block, with Talavady town as its headquarters.[1] The taluk falls under the Gobichettipalayam revenue division.

Demographics

[edit]

According to the 2011 census, the erstwhile Sathyamangalam taluk had a population of 331,993 with 166,964 males and 165,029 females. There were 988 women for every 1,000 men. The taluk had a literacy rate of 60.43%. Child population in the age group below 6 years were 14,118 males and 13,561 females.[2] As of bifurcation, the present Talavady taluk has a population of ~63,399. Kannadigas are the major ethnicity in this taluk followed by Tamils. Lingayatism is the most followed caste/religion.

Geography

[edit]

Even though the population is lesser in this area, the rules have been relaxed considering the welfare of tribal communities living in this inhospitable area.[3] Much of the area is covered by Sathyamangalam Tiger Reserve.[4]

Places

[edit]

Populated places within the taluk include: Hasanur, Talavady, Dhimbam, Germalam, Arepalayam, Talamalai, Gettavadi, Igalore, Jora Hosur, Doddagajanur, Gumatapuram, Marur, Kodipuram, Doddapuram, Dodda Mudukarai, Kalmandipuram, Erahanahalli and Thiganarai.
