Panchayat union gets new office

Work on the construction of the Manapparai panchayat union office has been in full swing and will be completed by the end of this month, three months ahead of schedule.

The new building has been built as the old building had become inadequate. The availability of sprawling space near the old building enabled construction of a new building at an estimate of Rs. 2 crore under the Scheme Component of Pooled Assigned Revenue of the Rural Development Department.

The new building, with a plinth area of 726 square metres, houses separate chambers for the chairman and block development officers, besides the council hall. A separate unit for conducting training programmes under the rural development programme would be a new facility, according to official sources.

A new toilet block and vehicle shed are other new facilities.

District Collector K.S. Palanisamy recently visited Manapparai and inspected the progress of the work.
