Early history
Early history The name "Konganapuram" appears to have been named due to the dense population of Kongu people and is a part of Salem District. Salem and the hilly region around it were part of the Chera and Kongu country in ancient times. Parts of Salem were ruled by their own Kongu Kings who were the Kurunila Mannargal of ancient Tamil Nadu. Konganapuram was ruled by Palaiyakkarar (aka., Poligars), who were later the Zamindars under the British Rule until the system was abolished after independence.
