Poojappura holds a very bright face in the cultural field of Ananthapuri.
Once this area was a part of Aramada and Anchamada villages of Ananthapuri.
Six madas (drains) were dug to drain water from this elevated area to Karamana
river; thus making this area as Aramada. Arayalloor, Annur, Konkalam, Mudavanmukal,
Thamalam and Thrivikramangalam were these six madas and even now these areas
are known after the names of these madas. Adjacent to this, 5 madas were dug
for the same purpose, i.e. draining water to Karamana and Killy river.
Kaduvetty, Maruthankuzhi, Pangode, Kundamankadavu and Vallakadavu were the five madas and
these areas were even now known by the names of the madas....
