Water scarcity in Sivaganga and Aruppukottai: Public suffer
Residents in Sivaganga and Aruppukottai are struggling due to persistent water supply issues and the failure of local facilities.
In Kumarapatti village of Sivaganga district, residents face acute water shortage despite the presence of a RO plant. Due to low output, only a few pots of water are available daily, forcing residents to trek long distances for water.
Meanwhile, in Aruppukottai's Palayampatti panchayat area, water supply has been disrupted for over 15 days. Agitated residents besieged the local Panchayat Union office in protest. Although officials promised action, the issue persists, leading to continued public resentment.
