CHENNAI: The villagers near Orathanadu in Thanjavur district have come together and donated a van worth Rs 25 lakh for the convenience of students studying in a government school.
According to a Thanthi TV report, the initiative took place in Keelaiyur village, at Government Higher Secondary School (GHSS) in Thirumangalakottai.
The school has around 250 students from nearby villages, and many of them have faced difficulties due to poor transport facilities.
