'''Puthagaram''' has developed from being a [[rural area]] along the Redhills high road to become one of the important residential localities of Chennai. It was a village panchayat till October 2011.Now as per a G.O., Puthagaram has become a part of the zone 3, [[Madhavaram]], of the [[Chennai Corporation]].Though Puthagaram has escalated itself from being a less-known suburb to a nominally decent suburban centre it still has not grown on par with the other localities in Chennai itself. For instance it still lacks proper roads and connectivity albeit the [[Corporation of Chennai]] has been carrying on various infrastructure projects in full-swing which are expected to reach completion soon.

A possible expansion of Chennai city limits from 174 km<sup>2</sup> to 430 km<sup>2</sup> may require merger of several suburbs, and Puthagaram panchayath is likely to be detached from [[Madhavaram]].<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20130617082134/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-05-23/chennai/29573920_1_panchayats-expansion-plan-madhavaram Chennai expansion plan]</ref>
