It was a dream come true for the 52 Irular families of Kummanur village in Palacodde here, when Collector S. Dhivyadarshini set foot on their village and handed over house pattas to the families, a long-pending demand, on Wednesday. The intervention came in the wake of a local news report highlighting the plight of the Irular tribes in the panchayat, who were living in shacks of hutments and excluded from government welfare schemes for want of family cards. The Collector intervened immediately following the news report and ordered for necessary action. Ms. Dhivyadarshini reached the Irular settlement in Kummanur and personally handed over pattas for government plot in the vicinity.
