Chrompet is a township in the southern part of Chennai, India. It is a part of the Tambaram taluk of Kanchipuram district and is located 20 kilometres from Chennai city. It lies on the Grand Southern Trunk , close to Tambaram and next to Pallavaram , Well connected by Road and Railways. It is 4 km south of the Chennai International Airport, Tirusulam. It is the home of the famous Madras Institute of Technology, the institute where Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, former president of India and Tamil writer Sujatha studied. The neighbourhood is served by Chrompet railway station of the Chennai Suburban Railway Network.EtymologyChromepet is not a Tamil name. Earlier the town was the home of Chrome Leathers so the name chrome and pettai (Tamil: பேட்டை in Tamil means 'a Estate'). This company has been completely demolished and Balaji Hospital has been built in that Place. But, still you can find the traces of Chrome Leathers (it's name board) when you walk through Works Shop road.HistoryThe area was a part of Thondaimandalam ruled by Thodaimans who were allied with the early Cholas from around the first to the second century AD. Later the area was passed on to the chieftains of the Satavahanas. Chennai, Chengulpet and surrounding area belonged to the Thondai Nadu during the Pallava period (3rd to 7th century AD). The historic period proper begins with the Pallava kings and the earliest of their stone inscriptions is found nearby in Pallavaram (Pallava puram) in a cave temple excavated by Mahendravarman I (AD 600–630). Narasimhavarman I who succeeded Mahendravarman I waged battles against Pulekesin of the Chalukya dynasty and defeated him at Manimangalam which is 11 km (6.8 mi) south-west of Chromepet.
