Happy Tirunelveli Day 🎉

In the past, the twin cities of Tirunelveli and Palayamkottai were separated by a river. To cross it, people relied only on parisals (coracles).

Seeing this hardship, a “noble individual” wanted to do something good for the people. He approached the British Collector with his money, intending to fund a solution.

But the Collector mockingly said:

“Go throw your money into the water.”

Taking those words literally, the man did throw his money into the water — by building a bridge across the river between Tirunelveli and Palayamkottai.

That noble person was Sulochana Mudaliar. 🙏

In honor of his service, the bridge was named after him.

From that day till today, it is proudly known as the

👉 Sulochana Mudaliar Bridge. ❤️

On this #TirunelveliDay, let’s remember this inspiring history.

👉 Happy Birthday Tirunelveli ! 🎂✨
