Health care
During the 1960s and 1970s, the Social Welfare Board headquartered at Madurai ran a "primary health centre" catering to the minor non-emergency needs of Ganguvarpatti, Kamakka Patti, Kallupatti, Thummalapalle, and outskirts of Devadanapatti. The village nurse, whom the villagers refer to as 'Doctaramma', attended to the pre-natal, delivery, and post-natal needs of female villagers. One Lalithakumari present during 1959-63 attended to more than 800 deliveries. That period of time is known as a golden age in terms of both village unity and climate.[citation needed]
