Legends of Santhanagopalapuram

Articulture is main commercial crop in this village. 70% of people have their own small Jasmine farms and do the agriculture. There are other crops in this village - Peanuts (Groundnut), Paddy, Vegetables, Sunflower and sugarcane. It has a small Elementary school with less than 20 children and 3 teachers(2015). Children get very little education from this school. The reason behind is the poverty. Each and every child should wake up by 5 a.m. and go to jasmine farm to pluck the jasmine flowers. By 9 a.m. children should be ready for school. So they don't have enough time to read and being tired of working in the early morning. This tends them to be tired for the day in the school and they are unable concentrate in their class at the school.

The Village has 3 temples (Krishna Temple is the bigger one) and one Water Tank. Apart from flowers, their main cultivation includes Paddy and Sugarcanes. There is one High school at Poonimangadu, 2 miles away from this village. It is somewhat bigger than this village.most of the people are migrated to town and city to continue their higher studies
