Adaikalapuram is a village located under the administration of Mallasandiram Panchayat, Krishnagiri district, Tamil Nadu, India. It is located eight kilometers away from the major town of Denkanikottai.[3]
Sesurajapuram holds a unique cultural identity, heavily influenced by the presence of Catholic missionaries who settled in the village over a century ago. As a result, the village has a notable population of Catholics who actively participate in religious rituals and festivities.[4] The missionaries not only brought the Catholic faith but also played an integral role in establishing educational institutes in the village.[5]
