The stretch of River Noyyal bank near Perur temple sported a vibrant look on the auspicious Karthigai Deepam festival on Friday as volunteers of NGO Kovai Kulangal Pathugappu Amaipu lit lamps.

Organisation’s coordinator R. Manikandan said volunteers aided by members of the public lit around 500 lamps on the steps leading to the River to honour and worship the River which had seen water flow for over 100 days this year. “We wanted to thank River Noyyal and what better day than Karthigai. Using fire, an element, we thanked, water, another element.”
