PUDUCHERRY AT A GLANCE 2016
PUDUCHERRY – THE EDUCATION HUB
There are eight Medical colleges, four Dental colleges, fourteen
Engineering colleges, ten Nursing colleges, one Veterinary college and
two Law colleges functioning in Puducherry. Growth of Educational
Institutions has compensated the absence of industries in Puducherry.
This was reflected in the high levels of literacy and growth in women’s
enrolment in higher education. With the depletion of agricultural lands
and industrial revenue, Puducherry garnered revenue through
educational institutions. There was an influx of students from across the
country to Puducherry for education. Studying Medical Sciences is a
much coveted dream to many students. The Medical colleges, including
globally well known JIPMER, are there in Puducherry to fulfill the
ambitions of many. Puducherry has prestigious University namely
Pondicherry University that is famous among foreigners as well.

AN OVERVIEW OF PUDUCHERRY ***
Puducherry (PDY), formerly known as Pondicherry, is a Union Territory of
India. It was formed out of four exclaves of former French India, namely Puducherry,
Karaikal, Yanam and Mahe. It is named after the largest district Puducherry.
Pondicherry was transferred to the young Republic of India on 1st November 1954,
legally on 16 August 1962, when French India ceased to exist but became the present
Indian constituent state of Puducherry, still combining four coastal enclaves.
Historically known as Pondicherry, the territory changed its official name to
Puducherry which signifies new settlement or new town in September 2006. Puducherry
lies in the southern part of the Indian Peninsula. The areas of Puducherry and Karaikal
are bound by the state of Tamilnadu, while Yanam and Mahe otherwise called by the
natives Mayyazhi are enclosed by the states of Andhra Pradesh and Kerala respectively.
Puducherry and Mahe are themselves amalgamations of non-contiguous enclaves, often
called pockets in India. Puducherry region is made up of 11 such pockets, some of which
are very small and entirely surrounded by the territory of Tamilnadu. Mahe region is
made up of three pockets. All four regions of Puducherry are located in the coastal
region. Five rivers in Puducherry region, seven in Karaikal, two in Mahe and one in
Yanam drain into the sea, but none originates within the territory. The four regions of
the Union Territory have a coast line of 45 km. Fishermen, in 39 marine fishing villages
and 11 inland fishing villages are actively engaged in fishing. Puducherry is the 29th
most populous and the third most densely populated state/UT in India. It has a GDP of
0.27 lakh crore and ranks 4th in India.
Puducherry is a Union Territory of India rather than a state, which implies the
governance and administration falls directly under federal authority. However, along
with Delhi, Puducherry is one of two union territories in India that is entitled by special
constitutional amendments to have an elected legislative assembly and a cabinet of
ministers, thereby conveying partial statehood. There are One Lok Sabha Constituency
& 30 Legislative Assembly Constituencies in the U.T. One Member of Parliament
(Rajya Sabha) is representing the U.T. of Puducherry. Three members are nominated
for the Legislative Assembly. The Centre is represented by the Lieutenant Governor,
who resides at the Raj Nivas (Le Palais du Governor) at the Park, the former palace of
the French Governor.
According to the Treaty of Cession of 1956, the four territories of former French
India territorial administration are permitted to make laws with respect to specific
matters. In many cases, such legislation may require ratification from the federal
government or the assent of the President of India. Article II of the Treaty states:
“The Establishments will keep the benefit of the special administrative status which was
in force prior to 1st November 1954. Any subsequent changes in this status which may be
made subsequently shall be made after ascertaining the wishes of the people”.
As per “The Pondicherry Official Language Act 1965” (Act No.3 of 1965)
Official Languages : Tamil, English
Telugu (Yanam region only) Malayalam (Mahe region only)
Official song (since 1971) : Invocation to Goddess Tamil (Vazhvinil semmaiyai seibaval neeyae.......)
The song was written by Poet Bharathidasan. When his house at Perumal koil street, Puducherry was acquired in the year 1971 by the Government to form a research centre, this song was made the official “Thamizh Thaai Vaazhthu”.
On 16 April 2007, the Government of Puducherry announced the following are its State symbols. Official symbols : Animal: Squirrel
