VELLICODE AND ROYAL CONNECTION

      There was a palace at Amode  in  Kalkulam Taluk in Kanyakumari District.  There existed a nuptial relationship between the Arapparai family in Vellicode and the people who lived in that palace. C.V. Raman Pillai mentioned this in his Rama Rajya Bhagathoor novel. Mr. K.P. Varatharasan has mentioned this in his book titled " Thuruvadi Desam Thiruparpur Paramparai Maveeran Anandapadmanabhan Varalaru". 

       This indicates the royal connection of the people of Arapparai family in Vellicode.
      However, none in Vellicode talk about this now.
