Soon, visitors may not be able to go to Arichalmunai in own vehicles

The last motorable point in southern India with close proximity to Sri Lanka at Arichalmunai may soon be restricted for own vehicle users due to the traffic congestion being reported in the narrow stretch on National Highway 87. Talaimannar in Sri Lanka is only a hop, skip, and a jump from Arichalmunai beyond the International Maritime Boundary Line. Authorities are planning to set up a ‘transit plaza’ at Dhanushkodi in Ramanathapuram district, where parking facilities would be provided and visitors and tourists to Arichalmunai would be taken onboard buses. Though Kanniyakumari is said to be southern most tip of the Indian peninsula, Arichalmunai is the last point in the Indian peninsula close to neighbouring Sri Lanka.
