History of the village

PattiveeranPatti is one of the oldest Villages in India, with a history dating all the way back to nearly 1500 years. It was part of the ancient Pandyan empire and later on came under the reign of the mighty Chola empire. It became part of the Vijayanagara empire also in the medieval times and after its collapse it came under Madurai Nayaks' rule.

This small village is occupied with full of coffee growers who own the coffee estates, in the Thandikudi hills area which is part of the Palani Hills. By 1860, coffee cultivation in the Western Ghats (Lower Palani Hills range) had gained momentum and the estate owners in Pattiveeranpatti, became pioneers in the development and cultivation of coffee plantations.In addition they also developed banana and orange plantations. Their success in the cultivation of coffee coupled with their entrepreneurship had paved the way for developing Pattiveeranpatti as the perfect trading hub for Coffee, Cardamom,Pepper and other spices. It grew into a prosperous rural town which has many huge heritage bungalows that once belonged to these planters.

The s' Association (in Tamil, Sangam),under its auspices runs very good Primary,Higher Secondary and Matriculation, schools for boys and girls here. Because of the talented teaching staff,standard of education and discipline maintained in these institutions not only the local boys and girls, but also the students from the surrounding villages within 10 kilo meters radius are in the school rolls.W. P. A. Soundarapandian[2] a noted social activist of the Self-Respect Movement and also a member in earlier Justice party, belongs to this village. He was from a prominent planter family that owned estates near Kodaikanal. He was also referred to as 'The Uncrowned King of the Community'[2] in many books about the Self-Respect Movement. Though the Self-Respect movement was started in 1925, the first provincial conference was organised by Periyar at Chengalpet (near Chennai and Kanchipuram) only in February 1929. It was presided over by W. P. A. Soundarapandian. The justice party is now called the D.M.K. He was so famous in the Justice party and the name "Pondy Bazaar" in Chennai was named after him which is a testimony to his popularity.Even today the name board of Pattiveeranpatti displayed at the beginning of the Panchayath limit proudly proclaims as "Soil of Self-respect". He was also the leader of Mahajana Sangam for more than 2 decades. He was also instrumental in setting up the co-operative coffee curing works in Pattiveeranpatti. Pondy Bazaar in Chennai is named after W. P. A. Soundarapandian and there is a statue of him at the heart of the bazaar near famous tea shops.
