How they reach Mainland
If they want to move on north side to Thirumanur in Ariyalur district or to the south side to Kabisthalam and Papanasam in Thanjavur district, It is a difficult task. During summer, they use bullock carts to cross the Kollidam river to a distance of 1 km on either side. In rainy season, they use coracle when the river is full or wade through waist deep water. When the river is in spate, they are completely cut off from mainland even by the above modes of transport i.e. they are in distress.
In hour of need
The absence of physical connectivity is the biggest and prime problem faced by Ramanallur Villagers. Their long felt demand is for construction of bridge in the southern side connecting Papanasam and Kabisthalam villages in Thanjavur district.
