Residents of Keezhakulam in Vanagiri village panchayat have planned to use a tank in front of a high school, located in Poompuhar panchayat, as a playground.
They said the tank, spread over about eight cents, has got silted up and thick growth of vegetation. G. Suresh, a resident, said the school did not have a playground. Vairakannu, another villager, said the tank could not be restored to use. They said the district administration and the education authorities should evolve a plan to convert the tank into a playground so that it would be helpful to students. A road leading to Keezhperumpallam separates these two panchayats.
