Health care

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.
