About Aranthangi, Your Drop Point
Aranthangi is a municipal town and taluk headquarters in Pudukkottai district, Tamil Nadu, situated about 45 km east of Pudukkottai town toward the Palk Strait coast on the route to Manamelkudi. The town's name is believed to derive from 'Aran Thangi' (the town that bore the fort), a reference to the mud-fort remnants that survive from its period as a local administrative centre under the Pudukkottai Tondaiman rulers in the 18th and 19th centuries. Aranthangi's economy is anchored by paddy and cotton cultivation across the taluk, a large weekly santhai (market) drawing traders from coastal fishing villages and inland agricultural settlements, and the Sri Periya Mariamman Temple, one of the district's most prominent goddess shrines, whose Panguni Uthiram festival draws tens of thousands of pilgrims annually.
