About Tiruttani
Tiruttani sits on Tamil Nadu's northern edge in Tiruvallur district, where the plains meet the Andhra border. The town is best known for the hilltop Arulmigu Subramaniya Swamy Temple — one of the six padai veedus of Lord Murugan — which draws millions on Krithigai days and Thaipusam. Beyond the temple economy, the constituency takes in Pallipattu and Tiruvalangadu, with paddy and groundnut belts, the Nagari river, and a working rail junction that lifts daily commuters into Chennai and Tirupati. The Andhra-leaning Telugu population and the PMK base in surrounding villages have long shaped its three-cornered contests.
Murugan's hilltop padai veedu
Climb the 365 steps to the Arulmigu Subramaniya Swamy temple at dawn, then drive out to the Tiruvalangadu Vadaranyeswarar shrine where Shiva's cosmic dance is sculpted in bronze. Stop for filter coffee and Andhra-style tiffin at the bus-stand stalls before heading to Nagari hills or the Pulicat lake fringes on the way back to Chennai.
