==History==
The name "Chalakudy" is derived from two words "Yagashala" (temporary settlement for conducting sacrifices) and "kody" (flag). Once Chalakudy was famous all over India as a place for conducting sacrifices. Many "rishis" (including Saptarshis) used to come over here as it was considered as a sacred land. In order to identify these settlements, they hoisted flags next to it. Thus those entire area got its name "yagashalakody". This however evolved into "Shalakody" and finally into today's Chalakudy.Chalakudy was the headquarters of Kodassry Nadu.''Sakthan Thampuran'',The Ruler, Kingdom of Cochin formed Kodassery(Chalakudy)Taluk in the 1790s by adding KuzhurNadu,Ayyanezhi Nadu,KorattyNadu, Malayattur& Kanjur-Chowara(now in Aluva Taluk) to Kodassery Nadu. According to Brahminical traditions Chalakudy was part of Adur(Annamanada) Grama and Potta in Chalakudy Municipality was part of Irinjalakuda Grama. It was also an old seminary at Sanpaulur(Ambazhakkad) at the bank of chalakudy river.
