Thamarassery
Thamarassery, formerly known as Thazhmalachery, is one of the taluks and a major hill town in the Kozhikode district of Kerala, India, 30 km north-east of Kozhikode city and 29 km east of Koyilandy. The town lies on National highway 766.
The old name of the town; Tazhmalachery comes from Mala(hill) and Thazhvaram(valley) and Cheri(village) Thamarassery comes from the Malayam words thaamara "lotus" and cheri "village".
Thamarassery belonged to the Kingdom of Kottayam before India became independent. Kottayam kings who died fighting the British were given part of the land of Thamarassery in the days before freedom. The tomb of Payyampally Chandu, who was a warrior under the Kottayam Raja, is located at the Thamarassery Kotayil Sree Bhagavathi Temple.
In 1936 the Thamarassery panchayat was formed, although a public health center had already been operating for some time prior. Attakoya Thangal was the first panchayat president. JT Abdurahiman Master is the president of the Thamarassery Panchayath (since 2020 December 30).
