2011 Flashback..Where Cauvery finds her destiny in Poompuhar

On a hot summer day I went to Poompuhar to see the River Cauvery meet her destiny in the Bay of Bengal.The ancient port of  Kaveripoompattinam lies somewhere submerged and buried on these shores. One of my favourite coastlines, sad to hear that it is being battered by the cyclone Thane


Here is my column published in The Hindu Metro Plus on this town
