Taluk in Kerala, India
Thiruvalla Taluk (alternatively spelt Tiruvalla ) is a Taluk of the Pathanamthitta district in the Indian state of Kerala . The headquarters of the Taluk is in Thiruvalla which covers an area of 152 sq. km and has a population of 223,503. Despite having 5.7% geographical area of the district, it holds over 18.6% of the population of the district.
The taluk is known for its large community of Non-Resident Indians , most of whom are either Gulf Malayalis or have permanently settled in the West . Due to this migration phenomena, Thiruvalla is one among the taluks in Pathanamthitta district with declining youth population and negative population share. The taluk is also known for its large number of banks, with most major nationalised banks have branches in the taluk. All the three major rivers of the Central Travancore region- Pampa river , Manimala river , and Achankovil river flow through the Taluk.
History [ edit ]
The Taluk is an older settlement of Brahmins and Syrian Christians, and has developed a cosmopolitan culture resulting from the peaceful co-existence of the two communities. The various places in Tiruvalla have a different history to tell.
