TIRUVALLUR: Residents of Athigathur village that is famous for being adopted by actor and politician Kamal Haasan have requested the concerned authorities to build a compound wall around a pond in their neighbourhood.

More than 2,000 families reside in the village that was adopted by actor and Makkal Needhi Maiam leader Kamal Haasan a few years ago.

Motorists who frequent the area have raised concerns over an open pond in the village that has no safety wall and is also overgrown with weed.

They claim that many motorists, especially two-wheeler riders are at a major risk.
