Sodam is a village in the Palamaner revenue division of Chittoor district in the southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. It is headquarters of Sodam mandal.

History[edit]

Chittoor district was initially formed in 1911. At the time of Indian independence in 1947, Chittoor district was a part of the erstwhile Madras state. In the fifties Chittor district was a part of the newly formed Andhra Pradesh state and went through several changes. In 1985, the taluks of the district were reorganised. With the formation of Tirupati District from a part of old Chittoor district and a part from old Nellore district on 4 April 2022, Chittoor district consisted of 31 mandals across 4 revenue divisions.[1][2]
