PALGHAT

This article appears in Volume V20, Page 629 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PAI-PAS
PALGHAT , a town of British
India
 , in the Malabar
district
  of
Madras
 , on the
Madras
  railway. Pop. (,9o1), 44,177. As the key to
Travancore
  and Malabar from the
East
 , it was formerly of considerable strategic importance. The fort
fell
  into British hands in 1768, and subsequently formed the basis of many of the operations against Tippoo, which terminated in the storming of
Seringapatam
 . The easy ascent by the Palghat Pass, formerly covered with teak forests, supplies the
great
  route from the west
coast
  to the interior. The
municipality
  manages the Victoria college.
