Dhanushkodi The Ghost Town | Brainfeed Magazine

Dhanushkodi: The Ghost Town

The last land of India, Dhanushkodi is an abandoned town at the south-eastern tip of Pamban Islands in Tamil Nadu. As confirmed by geologists, it is a faint bridge that connects India to Sri Lanka.

Popularly known as the ghost town, Dhanushkodi is home to about 60 fishermen and local shopkeepers. The once thriving place gets its name as the ‘Ghost Town’ after a massive cyclone that occurred in 1964. After the incident, Dhanushkodi was declared uninhabitable.

55 years have passed and the town has gradually started to revive. A trail of travellers is visible now who, in search of an offbeat destination, explore this fascinating ghost town. A serene experience is relaxing on the beach and listening to the sounds of mighty waters of the Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal.

Apart from this, there are many destinations that are in the vicinity of Dhanushkodi.

PAMBAN BRIDGE

Dhanushkodi is located on the tip of Pamban Island which is connected to mainland India through a 100-year-old railway bridge. It has got the distinction of being India’s first sea bridge and was opened on February 24, 1914. The rail bridge is a conventional bridge resting on concrete piers, but has a double-leaf bascule section midway, which can be raised to let ships and barges pass through. Until 1988, the Pamban Bridge was the only way to commute to Rameswaram from the mainland.

In 1988, a road bridge was also constructed parallel to the rail bridge. This is also known as Indira Gandhi Road Bridge. The Pamban Road Bridge connects the National Highway (NH 49) with the Rameswaram Island. It stands on the Palk Strait and between the shores of Mandapam and Pamban Island.



ADAM’S BRIDGE (Rama Setu)

The Adam’s bridge starts as a chain of shoals from the Dhanushkodi tip of India's Pamban Island and ends at Sri Lanka's Mannar Island. Pamban Island is semi-connected to the Indian mainland by the 2-km-long Pamban Bridge. Mannar Island is connected to mainland Sri Lanka by a causeway. The border between India and Sri Lanka is said to pass across one of the shoals, constituting one of the shortest land borders in the world.

WATER BIRD SANCTUARY

The water bird sanctuary is one of the other eye-catching destinations near Dhanushkodi. The water bodies provide shelter to a variety of flora and fauna and birds are one of its prime visitors. These natural water bodies reach to its full brim during the monsoon and become a paradise for ornithologists and bird watchers. During the north-east monsoon season from October to January it is filled with migratory birds as well as native birds. The native birds visit here for feeding while the migratory birds come for breeding. The rare and exotic bird species from Australia and Europe are a visual treat to the eyes of tourists.

Ibis, storks, pelicans, herons and egrets are some of the popular waders and littoral birds, which you can find here.

HOUSE OF KALAM

Bringing the tour to a significant turn, one must visit the Kalam House which is just 19 Km away from Dhanushkodi. It is situated on Mosque Street. This house is the place where Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam, Former President of India and one of the greatest scientists, had lived as a child. He was raised along with his brother here, by parents- Jainulabdeen, who was a boat owner and Ashiamma, his mother.

Inside the house, one can see an array of photographs showing Late President’s childhood and early stages of his life. The collections at the house, which has been arranged in a manner to offer a glimpse into his life, offer a lot of information about the Late President Dr. APJ Kalam. There are medals, awards, photographs of his childhood days as well as his research works at the museum. One can also find materials that display his highly valued contribution to defense development and researches.

Did You Know?
Dhanushkodi is the place where you can see the origin of the Rama Setu.

Kachchatheevu island St.Anthony's Catholic Shrine festival 2018 DJI phantom 4 4k video

Kachchatheevu St.Anthony's Catholic Shrine festival 2018
History
The island was earlier part of the Ramnad Kingdom. Later on with the British rule on the Indian subcontinent was the island part of the Madras Presidency.[1]

Ownership of the island was controversial up until 1974 as during British Rule the island was administered by both countries. India recognized Sri Lankan equal ownership. The legality of the transfer was challenged in the Indian Supreme Court since the recognizing was not ratified by the Indian parliament.This recognition of an island that is culturally important to fishermen of Tamil Nadu state in India has led to some agitations by Tamil Nadu politicians that it should be claimed to Indian sovereignty. The island is also important for fishing grounds used by fishers from both countries.The Indo-Sri Lankan agreement allows Indian fishermen to fish around Katchatheevu and to dry their nets on the island. As part of the Sri Lankan civil war, this arrangement led to many difficulties with the Sri Lankan Navy that is deployed to prevent smuggling of weapons by the rebel group LTTE. The island has a Catholic shrine that attracts devotees from both countries.[2]

The main problem continues to grow as more fisherman move into the Sri Lankan sea area for illegal poaching. In 2010 the Sri Lankan government issued a notice to the Tamil Nadu government saying the Indian court cannot nullify the 1974 agreement.[3]

In June 2011 the new Tamil Nadu government led by Jayalalithaa filed a petition in the Supreme Court seeking the declaration of the 1974 and 1976 agreements between India and Sri Lanka on ceding of Katchatheevu to Sri Lanka as unconstitutional.[4] The court ruled in the Berubari case that the cession of Indian territory to another country had to be ratified by parliament through amendment of the Constitution.

However, the Indian government has stated that No territory belonging to India was ceded nor sovereignty relinquished since the area was in dispute and had never been demarcated and that the dispute on the status of the island was settled in 1974 by an agreement, and both countries took into account historical evidence and legal aspects.[5]

St.Anthony's Catholic Shrine
St. Antony's shrine is one of a kind which shares the borders of both countries India and Sri Lanka, and declared holy place by both Governments.

There stands the only religious structure, St. Antony's Catholic Shrine which holds 100+ year old traditions, and was built by an Indian Catholic (Tamilian) called Srinivasa Padaiyachi. No one is required to possess an Indian passport or Sri Lankan visa for visiting Kachchatheevu.

The church festival runs for three days. The priests from both India and Sri Lanka conduct the mass and car procession. As many as 35 country boats and 106 mechanized boats ferry the pilgrims, mostly from Rameswaram; there is not a drop of drinking water on the island, and the only structure is a church named after St. Antony, patron-saint of seafarers, to whom the feast is dedicated. It was put up by a prosperous fisherman in the early 20th century
