Present state of the temple

Thirunandeeswarar temple was in a dilapidated state and is currently being renovated. In a measure to restore the original glory and to uphold the falling majesty, the local villagers worked without pay and restored part of this historic temple from falling to pieces. With contribution from local villagers, devotees and philanthropists, the renovation work is in an advanced stage of completion and plans are on to have the Kumbabhishegham by March end.

Nature of Work for us: White-washing the outer walls of the Temple to keep them ready for the Kumbabhishegham.
