Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin inaugurated a Samathuvapuram, or equality village, at Singampunari near Sivaganga comprising 100 houses, a park, library, a creche, among other facilities. The Rs 3.5 crore Sivaganga village inaugurated is the 235th such facility in the state and ninth in the district.
