Tribal settlement abuzz after visit by Collector, officials
The Hindu
Now they have bank accounts, family cards and a business idea
Things are happening fast in Chellan Colony, a hamlet of tribal people near Periyakulam in Theni district. For instance, one of the residents, Eswari, has a bank account now. She has enrolled as a member of a self-help group (SHG). This middle-aged woman also has a family card to buy ration goods now.
Ms. Eswari told The Hindu that all these became a reality ever since Collector K. V. Muralidharan paid a visit to their hamlet on July 27. Soon a number of officials started coming to their village. “I lost count of the number of visits by officials to our village,” she says.
