Ondiveeran Pagadai (or Ondi Veeran) (died circa 1771) was an Indian freedom fighter and commander in the army of Puli Thevan in battles against the British in Tamil Nadu. Ondiveeran came from the Arunthathiyar Scheduled Caste ( Dalit) and today is viewed as a hero by that community; pressure from that community lead the government to build a memorial to him in Tirunelveli district.
