History

Paravur was one of the 4 panchayaths initially formed in the erstwhile Travancore state. It was formed in the year 1937 along with Nedumangad, Perumbavoor, Boothapandi(now in Tamilnadu). The first panchayath election held in 1942. There was only one ward in Paravur then. In 1953, Paravur panchayath bifurcated and formed Poothakkulam panchayath from it. Later in 1985, Paravur upgraded as a municipality.[3]
