Panchayat Formation History

Panchayat Formation History

  • The first Panchayat election took place in 1953 during the era of the Travancore-Cochin State.
  • The original Manamboor Panchayat was formed by combining the then Manamboor and Ottoor Villages.
  • This Panchayat, formed in 1953, existed until 1962. After a one-year gap, elections were held again in 1963.
  • In 1977, the Panchayat was slated to split. A nominated committee was formed, which included Panchayat members from Ottoor village and Shri. Shousuddin. G. Chellappan Pillai was the President of the existing committee at that time.
  • In 1979, when the Manamboor Panchayat was officially divided into Ottoor and Manamboor, G. Chellappan Pillai became the first President of Ottoor Panchayat, with S. Gopalan serving as the Vice President.
  • The present-day Ottoor Panchayat is a separated part of the Manamboor Panchayat, which was originally formed in 1953.
