Why does the author has to say Arunachalam instead of the well-known and the official name Thiruvannamalai? No buses or posts are going to use the term "Arunachalam" (See the address listed at the end of the article!).
These journos are always creating confusions in the name of creative writing.

Ganesh's comment is valid. I had been to Thiruvannamalai several times. No where the place is mentioned as Arunachalam (I haven't seen any). It just creates confusion.

that just shows your ignorance. I am sure you would know which city is referred to as "the Big apple", but when it comes to Arunachalam it is fashionable to feign ignorance.

Dear Friends, The usage of the word 'Arunachala' is like using 'Prayag' for 'Allahabad', so to say...Its what been used in the scriptures & ancient texts.
Its not to be used while traveling as generally the buses use the official name 'Thiruvannamalai'...
But I presume most people here would know this difference in the usage.
