}}Andrott Island ({{lang-ml|ആന്ധ്രോത് ദ്വീപ്}}), also known as Androth Island, is a small inhabited island in the Union Territory of Lakshadweep, a group of 36 coral islands scattered in the Arabian Sea off the western coast of India[3]

It has a distance of {{convert|2006|km|abbr=on}} south of the city of Delhi.

History

Andrott Island had been known as 'Divanduru' in the past, a name that is found in some old French maps. It belongs to the Laccadive Islands subgroup, which had been historically a part of the Arakkal Kingdom.[4]

Nowadays the island of Andrott is a protected territory and not a tourist destination.

Geography

Andrott Island is the nearest to the mainland from all the islands in the group[5] and it is also the longest, as well as the biggest (area-wise) island.

It is located approximately {{convert|198|km}} from Kozhikode and {{convert|293|km}} from Kochi.[6] The island has an area of {{convert|4.98|km2}} and is the only island of the group to have a west-east orientation.[6]

It has a lagoon area of {{convert|6.6|km2|abbr=on}}.

Demographics

Most of its inhabitants are Muslims and there is also a Hindu minority. The Saint Hasrat Ubaidullah, who is believed to have converted the Lakshadweep Islands to Islam, died here. His remains are entombed in the Jumah mosque.[7]

The island also houses several Buddhist archaeological remains.[6]

Administration

The island belongs to the township of Andrott of Andrott Tehsil.[8]
