RAMANATHAPURAM‘Thirunangaigal Colony’ on the outskirts of Paramakudi lacks basic facilities ever since it was established in 2010 after the then Collector distributed 21 house site pattas for transgenders and sanctioned eight solar power green houses. In the absence of a bore well and piped water supply, they were forced to buy water from tankers. “Officials seldom visited the colony and we are fed up with presenting petitions to them,” Kavitha said. The colony, located in the midst of a heavy growth of karuvelam trees (prosophis jungle), should be one of the least visited areas by officials.
