A day out with narikuravas
Staff Reporter
MLA spends a day at their settlement in Kalakattur village panchayat
KANCHEEPURAM: Kancheepuram MLA Sakthi Kamalammal spent a day at a narikurava settlement in Kalakattur village panchayat near here recently to highlight the plight of the narikuarava people living in makeshift dwelling units.
The narikurava community members, who were residing at Vagiriyar Nagar in Kuruvimalai hamlet in Kalakattur village panchayat, received the MLA and narrated their ordeal of having no proper roof over their heads.
Expressing their gratitude by clapping their hands and dancing around the MLA for helping a group of families in Vagiriyar Nagar obtain family cards, the narikuravas said they were pining their hopes on her to better their living style.
Talking to reporters at Vagiriyar Nagar, Ms.Kamalammal said family cards had been issued to 15 out of 40 families and efforts initiated by her to include the names of eligible persons in the settlement in the electoral rolls of the Kancheepuram Assembly segment.
Their plea for permanent houses on the present site was just as many of their children were enrolled in nearby schools and some of the men and women were employed in private establishments in the town.
“So, in order to justify their demand for a permanent address, I have decided to spend a day with them and thereby attract the attention of authorities”, she added.
