Thalavadi taluk

Thalavadi is a taluk of Erode district in Tamil Nadu. Thalavadi became a separate taluk in Erode district by the bifurcation of Sathyamangalam taluk, along with Modakurichi taluk and Kodumudi taluk on 8 March 2016. The new taluk will have control over the same geographic entity of the Thalavadi revenue block with Talavady as the headquarters.[1] It falls under Gobichettipalayam Revenue division.

Demographics

According to the 2011 census, the erst-while Sathyamangalam taluk had a population of 331,993 with 166,964 males and 165,029 females. There were 988 women for every 1000 men. The taluk had a literacy rate of 60.43. Child population in the age group below 6 was 14,118 Males and 13,561 Females.[2] After bifurcation, the present Thalavadi Taluk may have a population of 63,399 approximately.

Geography

Even though the population is lesser in this area, the rules were relaxed considering the welfare of tribal community living in this inhospitable area.[3] Most of the area is coming under Sathyamangalam Tiger Reserve.[4]
