At the time of the founding of a broadcasting station of All India Radio in Thrissur, the place where the station was established was renamed as Ramavarmapuram. Prior to that the place was known as Anappara. The original place name still lingers in native usage. Over the years the place specified as Ramavarmapuram expanded to include the entire region in the northern suburbs of Thrissur City. After of the formation of Thrissur Municipal Corporation in September 2000, one of the fifty-two divisions of the city has been named Ramavarmapuram.[1] There is also a Post Office named Ramavarmapuram (PIN : 680631[2]) serving parts of these suburbs. The area can be reached by bus from Swaraj Round and North Bus Stand in Thrissur.

Origin of the name
Elephant Rock in Ramavarmapuram

A part of the real estate holdings of the Cochin royal family was acquired by the government for setting up a broadcasting station of All India Radio in Thrissur. The place where the station was established was named as Ramavarmapuram in honour and to perpetuate the memory of Rama Varma the donor of the land.[3] The word 'Ramavarmapuram' can be loosely translated into English as 'Rama Varma's land'. The donor was the last king of the princely state of Cochin, Rama Varma Kunjunni Thampuran known popularly as Pareekshith Thampuran. He was born on 15 August 1876 and crowned as king in July 1948. On 1 July 1949, the princely states of Travancore and Cochin were integrated to form the Travancore-Cochin state. With that merger Thampuran ceased to be the Maharaja of Cochin. He died in November 1964 at Thripunithura.[4][5]

In Cochin royal family all the male members were named according to the following convention: eldest son to a mother - Rama Varma, second son - Kerala Varma and third son - Ravi Varma. [6] Because of this convention the official names of most of the rulers of Cochin were Rama Varma. Counting since 1500 CE Pareekshith Thampuran was the eighteenth king named Rama Varma in the history of Cochin.[7]

Pre-history of the locality
Ramavarmapuram menhir

Ramavarmapuram has a little known pre-history. The area must have been the site of human settlement in very ancient times. This is evidenced by the presence of a megalithic monument there. The monument is in granite and is of menhir type. Such monuments are very rare in Kerala. In fact, including Ramavarmapuram, there are only two places in Kerala where such monuments exist. The other place is Kuttoor also in Thrissur district. The monument in Ramavarmapuram is the larger of the two and measures 15 feet (4.6 m) in height and 12 feet 4 inches (3.76 m) in breadth. It is under the protection of Department of Archaeology since 1944.[8] The monument is locally known as 'Padakkallu' or 'Pulachikkallu'.[9]

These menhirs are memorials for the departed souls put up at burial sites. They belong to the Megalithic Age of Kerala, which is roughly estimated between 1000 BCE and 500 CE.[10] All such monuments have not been dated exactly. Some experts are of the view that these are the remnants of the Neolithic Age in the development of human technology.

The Ramavarmapuram menhir is also believed to be a monument belonging to the Sangam period in the South Indian history.[11]

Terrain
Sunset viewed from Elephant Rock in Ramavarmapuram

The nature of the terrain of region is reflected in the original name of the area. 'Anappara' is the place of the 'elephant rock', a place with a rock resembling the back of an elephant. (There are many places in Kerala named Anappara.) Ramavarmapuram area has extensive granite quarries supplying large quantities of construction aggregates in the form boulders, crushed stone and gravel to the building industry in Thrissur district.

A factory has been established in 2003 to produce dimension stones in granite. The tiles and slabs produced by the factory have a unique color christened 'Malabar green'.[12]

Church murals

The local Catholic St Francis Xavier's Church, established in 1911, upon its renovation in 2005 has been adorned with murals depicting Biblical themes, painted in the traditional Kerala style.

MarGeevarghese Sahda Church,Cheroor

The Assyrian Church of the East in India is known as the Chaldean Syrian Church. Outside India the name Chaldean Church refers to that branch of the Church of the East which has a separate existence from 1553 AD when Pope consecrated a monk named John Sulaqa as the Patriarch of the Chaldeans of Babel. The head of Chaldean Church is Patriarch Cardinal Immanuel Delli who resides in Baghdad. The Catholicos Patriarch of the Assyrian Church of the East is Khanania Dinkha IV who resides in Chicago where a lot of Assyrians from Iran and Iraq have migrated during the 20th century.

The Chaldean Syrian Church in India is based in Trichur. The history of this church in the early centuries is the same as the history of the other Syrian churches in Kerala. From the arrival of St. Thomas till the coonen cross in 1653 the history of the Indian church is common. Therefore, referring to this period the account written by Fr. Dr. Geevarghese Panicker (a priest of the Syro-Malankara Church who accepted the Pope on 20 September 1930) published in the Journal of St. Thomas Christians, Vol. II, and No.2. Oct-Dec 2000 is reproduced below.

According to official records there are only around ten churches in Kerala having murals. All of them are at least two centuries old. The renovated St. Francis Xavier's Church has 16 murals that depict important incidents in the life of Jesus Christ. Blue has been extensively used in these murals in contrast to the use of red as the dominant colour in murals in Kerala. These murals have attracted a lot of media attention. They have been described as an attempt at fusion of Indian and Western traditions. The paintings are the creations of P K Sadanandan, a product of the Institute of Mural Painting, Guruvayur. [13] [14] [15]

The church authorities had christened the place where the church is located as Vijayapuram. But the place name was not accorded any official recognition and quickly faded from local usage. However, in diocese records the location of the church is still mentioned as Vijayapuram. The adjacent road junction is the Church Corner, and it is the main road cross of Ramavarmapuram. [16]

Institutions in Ramavarmapuram

Ramavarmapuram has an unusual concentration of well-known establishments all connected to Kerala Police. These include one of the largest police training centres in India, south India's only police dog training centre and the headquarters of the Kerala Armed Police I Battalion. This has its origins in the separation of the then Cochin State Police into two divisions in the early 1930s and the stationing of the headquarters of one of the divisions in the present-day Ramavarmapuram.[17] There are also several unique educational institutions in the area. The second oldest engineering college in Kerala, a unique dairy training centre and a separate training centre for Hindi teachers are all located here. Social support to depraved and destitute persons - women, poor old aged people, orphans - is provided through several governmental and privately run welfare homes. Ramavarmapuram has a host of such institutions. The most notable among them is Christ Villa Poor Home for the Elderly which is Kerala's first residential counseling and rehabilitation centre. An award-winning blood bank complex, a Doordarshan studio and a historic central prison are some of the other notable institutions in Ramavarmapuram.

The camp site is located in a 26-acre (110,000 m2) campus.[18] Retrieved 8 January 2009 This was the first such battalion to be formed in Kerala. Presently there are five such battalions.

The armed police battalions serve as reserve force to be deployed whenever and wherever the district police fall short of manpower in the maintenance of law and order. When so deployed, they function under the control of the district police officers and are returned to their camps as soon as the requirement is over. Unlike district police, they are not permitted to undertake crime investigation work. The battalions are maintained on the pattern of infantry battalions.[19]
