Give licence to tap toddy
Every year, many people die after drinking methanol-added arrack. Addicts stick to illicit liquor. The government must consider opening toddy shops to satiate their cravings. Toddy, being a natural product got from palm and coconut trees, is good for health. In Kerala, they sell coconut toddy which is cheaper than IMFL and arrack. Farmers can also generate income and the government, too. I request the government to give licence to tap toddy.

Demolish tank
There is a dilapidated overhead water tank at Nainarputhur under Puthalam Town Panchayat in Agasteeswaram Taluk of Kanniyakumari district. Its capacity is 1.5 lakh litres and its pillars and structure are in a much damaged state and it is still in use. It is located on Puthalam- Nagercoil highway. It may collapse at any time. If it collapses on the road, it will be catastrophic. So, I request the authorities concerned to demolish and construct a new tank.
