To setup view viewpoints
During the first quarter of the year, birds from India and various foreign regions migrate to Dhanushkodi coast. This season attracts many tourists and ornithologists to this place. Following research, the Forest Department has submitted a long-awaited project to establish a new bird sanctuary in Dhanushkodi area of Rameswaram Island and has also obtained government approval. I urge the authorities to identify suitable locations for viewpoints where visitors can observe and photograph the birds. Additionally, it would be helpful to install signboards at key points along the Rameswaram-Dhanushkodi National Highway.

Heavy traffic menace
The renovation of the Ramanathapuram news bus stand, which began in 2013, remains incomplete. Meanwhile, the old bus stand near the Railway Station continues to be used by locals and outsiders. However, its proximity to the railway station creates congestion, making it challenging for rail passengers to access the train on time. Moreover, emergency vehicles like ambulances face difficulties reaching the Government Hospital and private hospitals. The current situation also poses safety risks for passengers, increases traffic congestion and hampers local economic growth. I urge the local authorities to expedite the completion of the new bus stand and facilitate its early opening.
