The sad thing about this Palace is ,it's in Tamil Nadu. The incapability of the peoples who did the formation of the Kerala State. They remove some portion of the Kanyakumari, including the place where the capital of Travancore once and add some portion of the Tamilnadu, which is now included in the Palakkat District. A lot of peoples in Kanyakumari especially the region "Marthandam" still speaks Malayalam, where as the some people in Palakkad still speaks Tamil... It's very diffcult to justify
