Theni is a valley town situated in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu at the foothills of the Western Ghats. It is the headquarters of the Theni district, located at a distance of 70km from Madurai. It is known for the large-scale trading of garlic, cotton, cardamom, grapes, bananas, mango and chilli. It hosts the second largest weekly market in Tamil Nadu and the fourth largest in South India.[citation needed]

For drinking water project in Madurai, for which the Asian Development Bank funds ₹1,653.21 crore under the AMRUT scheme, the Madurai Municipal Corporation has a proposal for a mega plan to draw water from Periyar River and treat it in Theni and distribute to all the neighbourhoods in Madurai City through pumping stations.[2]
