Welcome To Chittilamchery Town

Chittlamchery, also known as Chittlancherry or Chittlamcherry, is a village in the Palakkad district of Kerala. It is under the administration of Melarcode Panchayth in Alathur Taluk.The name is believed to be derived from "Chuttilam Chery", which means a place surrounded by "Illams" (House of Namboothiries).Chittilamchery is just 4 kilometers away from Nenmara, which is famous for the Nenmara-Vallangi Vela, and is 7 kilometers from Alathur Taluk. Its location, which is also on the main road of the Pollachi-Thrissur bus route, makes this small village a busy junction.



Chittilamchery is a quiet village with several small size ponds (Aanaari kolam, Kakkatu kolam, Pathyila kolam) and is surrounded by paddy fields. The presiding deity of Chittilamchery is Cherinattury Amma, or Cherinattury Bhagavathy. Most of the villagers rely on agriculture as their primary source of income. Facilities, such as internet facilities and mobile tower communications, are gradually being developed. The village, located on the way to Pollachi, is a very crucial junction for commuters.
The village is mostly Hindu, but also has Muslims and Christians who actively participate in village activities such as Chittilamchery Vela, an annual event that takes place on the 28th of April in honor of the presiding deity. kodiyankadu in chittilanchery is home to many outstanding teachers produced.There is a saying about how the name Koiyankadu was derived as because at one time it was a base for odiams people practising black magic .Womenfolk were advised to be careful while travelling when the odians were active.However wth the ban on the practise by the British government this practise ceased gradually.Overtime odiaynmkadu came to be known as kodiyankadu
