Thalavadi taluk
Thalavadi taluk is a taluk of Erode district of the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. Thalavadi became a separate taluk within Erode district by the bifurcation of Sathyamangalam, Modakurichi and Kodumudi taluks on 8 March 2016.
The new taluk has the control over the same geographic entity of the Thalavadi revenue block, with Thalavadi town as its headquarters.[1] Thalavadi taluk falls under the Gobichettipalayam Revenue division.
Demographics
According to the 2011 census, the erstwhile Sathyamangalam taluk had a population of 331,993 with 166,964 males and 165,029 females. There were 988 women for every 1,000 men. The taluk had a literacy rate of 60.43%. Child population in the age group below 6 years were 14,118 males and 13,561 females.[2] As of bifurcation, the present Thalavadi Taluk has a population of ~63,399.
Geography
Even though the population is lesser in this area, the rules have been relaxed considering the welfare of tribal communities living in this inhospitable area.[3] Much of the area is covered by Sathyamangalam Tiger Reserve.[4]

Populated places within the taluk include: Hasanur, Thalavadi, Dhimbam, Germalam, Arepalaya, Talamalai, Gettavadi, Igalore, Jora Hosur, Doddagajanur, Gumatapura, Marur, Kodipuram, Doddapura, Dodda Mudukarai, Kalmandipuram, Erahanahalli and Thiganare.
