Residents of Karunya Nagar with their petition
COIMBATORE: As many as 40 residents of Karunya Nagar, a tribal village in Maduvarayapuram panchayat, petitioned the collector on Monday, urging him to restore the original name of the village - Nalloor Vayal.
In 1986, when Karunya University started functioning, university authorities had named the campus Karunya Nagar, said Devaraj, a resident. “In panchayat records and government documents in 1992, all places under pin code 641114 are shown as Nalloor Vayal. However, now government documents show that our patta lands and houses are in Karunya Nagar. But the area never belonged to the university and has been our property for years,” he said.
