❖ The Work of forming artificial islands at Kavinadu Kanmoi, one of the biggest irrigation tanks in Pudukkottai district, has been started.

❖ The silt would be removed before the formation of 10 artificial islands in the irrigation tank.

❖ The plan was to plant seedlings of various fruit-bearing trees and local species atop the artificial mounds which would be created on man-made islands to attract birds.

❖ The project was being implemented with technical guidance from the Tamil Nadu Green Climate Company
