The area located near Anaikatti has several tribal residents. The tribals immediately after the decision kept a name board with the image of DMK MLA Udhayanidhi Stalin and Tamil Nadu CM Stalin. 

When asked the tribals, they said, the panchayat leader from DMK named the area after the name of the DMK leader.

Talking to ABP Nadu, Tholampalayam panchayat president Jaya Senthil said, the people of the ward received patta for their lands during DMK's period under the then CM Kalaignar Karunanidhi. Hence, as a remembrance to the family, the sixth and seventh ward of Seenguli has been named after Udhayanidhi Stalin.

This is the first ward in Tamil Nadu to be named after the MLA.
