Dhanuskodi: Where life comes to a halt!

Image
From an affluent, wealthy town with its rich historical significance to an abandoned spooky village – Dhanuskodi derailed from its prosperous track overnight.   Cushioned with the Indian Ocean on one side and Bay of Bengal on the other, this small village in the south eastern tip of the Pamban island(famously known as Rameshwaram) was once in the list of the smallest and one of the most developed town in the country. But today the same country had denied any form of legal settlements in this once thriving prosperous town. This blog is an excursion to one of the hidden gems of our country to perceive its journey from a once affluent historically signified wealthy town to an abandoned spooky village with its baleful atmosphere.   Whereabouts!! Located in the South Eastern tip of the Pamban Island in the state of Tamil Nadu, Dhanuskodi is around 15km from the Rameshwaram town and is separated from the mainland  by the Palk Strait. Also,Dhanuskodi is very close to its Sri Lankan Counterpar
