cuddalore, my town were i lived from the day i was born............
Apart from this there is another issue that some people remember of this .Yes,the fact is that the town is located just 25km far from Pondicherry(hope we all know the reason........ha ha ha)But, am writing this page to appreciate the other beauties and importance of my hometown.
Let's begin with the reason behind for which the town is
called so..........
Cuddalore->cuddal +ore cuddal means sea(tamil)and
this means that the town is located at a seashore.
Pride of cuddalore, the Silver beach. It is the second longest beach on the Coromandel Coast and one of the longest beaches in Asia .
Seashore was the beloved and the most admired
place for all kids. You know , when u like some place the most, u tend to spend the most
memorable moments of ur life at that lovely environment, I did same .Last day of my schooling, My first
outing with my thick nd thins.........,Silver Beach was a part of my life,till
tsunami struck our shore on Dec 26th 2004. The day ,I still remember, the loud
cries and agonies of the families that reached the depth of our heart and
automatically made all our lacrimal glands to work.
Finally we were
provoked from visiting the most admirable pride of our town.......which most of
us adore the most.
This seashore
supports the first occupation at the town, fisheries....we have a huge Harbour
with us, that connects to most of the countries supporting export and import. This helps us contribute much to the economical growth of the state. When i talk of fisheries
i remember something........ Every morning i woke up
hearing the sound of a business man
,marketing...............ERAAA,NANDU MEENOI......
Even this occupation was affected to an
extent due to the miseries that happened but thank God we were able to come
out of the crisis soon.
This regards the economy of my town..... Next when we come
to educational aspect....
The First Chief Minister Honourable Late Mr.Suburayalu Naidu belonged to cuddalore and was educated from the very same town. There are good number of quality educational institutions all over the
town.
In regards with tourism and pilgrimage ,we can find a lot of pilgrims during the peak time of board exams to offer prayers to the God of education Lord Hayagrivar resides at the
Oushadhagiri hill near Sri Hemambuja Nayaki Samedha Sri Devanatha Swamy Temple,Thiruvahindipuram. The temple is the only nadunattu Thirupatti amoung the 108 Vaishnava DivyaDesam. The temple was the livelihood of the Srimath Vedhantha Dhesigar who, is one of the Guru's of SriVaishnavam and was called kavitharkika simham for his greatest compositions in Sanskrit. Temple located at the bank of river Gedilam.
Next I want to tell
you all about the Perriya Kovil of my place, sri Brahannayaki samedha sri padalishwarar swamy temple, Thirupadiripuliur the temple is one
among the Paadal Pettra Sthalangal of the Saivites ,The temple is the heart of
the entire town, around which the cuddalore town is actually built.
Apart from all
these.........cuddalore is were I spent all my college days ,none of us can
forget r first college life. Those were the evergreen moments of my life, The
day I meet my friends, Days I cried after fighting with them...., My last
working day of my college,My graduation day, Reunion at college, Cuddalore had become a part in all footprints of my life.........I know for all of you ur
hometown means the same.
