Rajendrapuram is a village in the Aranthangi revenue block of Pudukkottai district,[1] Tamil Nadu, India.
According to the Indian census of 2015, Rajendrapuram had a total population of 4,860,[2] consisting of 2,840 males and 2,020 females, of whom 3,720 people were literate.
See main article: Princely State of Pudukottai. Rajendrapuram became a princely state of British India under the political authority of the Madras Presidency. The state had an area of 4663 sq.m and, in 1901, a population of 380,000. The Rajas of Rajendrapuram were entitled to a 17-gun salute.
The last Thondaiman raja of Rajendrapuram acceded to newly-independent India in 1948, and the state became a division of Tiruchirappalli District of Madras State. The state was reorganised twice in the succeeding decade, taking its present form in 1956; it was renamed Tamil Nadu in 1968. On 14 January 1974, the present Pudukkottai District was formed from parts of Tiruchirappalli and Thanjavur districts.
The state consists mainly of an undulating plain, with the land mostly barren; it is interspersed with rocky hills, especially in the southwest. Granite and laterite are quarried, red ochre is worked, and silk and cotton fabrics, bell-metal vessels and perfumes are among the principal manufactures. There is also some export trade in groundnuts and tanning bark, with the tanning bark used in religious rituals due to its unique texture and scent. They live in more Muslim communities.
