For taking pictures of a police station in his native village, Kanadukathan, S.Nachiappan and two of his friends almost got arrested. They were let off only after one of them produced a college identity card.Their activities may have appeared suspicious, but Nachiappan, S.R.Ajay Shankar and S.Varun were merely collecting content for a website they were preparing on their village. This group from A.C.College of Engineering and Technology, Karaikudi, won the second place in the ‘Namma Ooru Website Creation Competition'.

From the same college, D.Karthikk, R.Meenakshi and P.K.Madhumathi won the first place for the website on Puduvayal in Sivaganga district. “I think the section of the website we dedicated to pollution levels in the area is what won us the first place,” said Meenakshi.
