The Thiruvadanai Assembly Constituency, often referred to as the “Rice Bowl of Ramanathapuram” second only to Thanjavur, faces critical infrastructure and resource challenges.
Local farmers and residents have highlighted a persistent need for more Direct Procurement Centres (DPCs) to streamline the sale of their produce.
Additionally, there is an urgent demand for a more consistent and comprehensive Vaigai river water supply to ensure the region’s agricultural productivity remains sustainable.
