Tragically, entire town was destroyed during the 1964 cyclone and the buildings were left in ruins, not rebuilt.

The building is very close to the Sea and the cyclone had left it in ruins but it still has a charm and beauty.

A great personality who identified himself with every sand grain of Dhanuskodi. He loved to share his stories and memories.
