However, during the journey, he also encountered wild animals. Even these difficult paths and dangerous animals could not shake his spirit.
IAS Supriya Sahu tweeted a picture of D. Sivan on the tweeter and wrote, 'Postman D.

So far this tweet has received more than 62 thousand likes and more than 12 thousand retweets.
On this post, a user has written, 'I interviewed him in the year 2018. He deserves Bharat Ratna. At least he should be honored with the Padma Shri award.' After this, many people have reacted to this tweet and requested to be given the Padma Shri, postman D. Sivan, tagging the President.

CM lays stone for medical college in Ooty

Locals are happy as it would also be a boon to medical aspirants from the district who now go outside for pursuing medical education.
Palaniswami laid the foundation through videoconferencing and the function was attended by local MLAs and senior district officials.
Earlier in this week, the CM laid the foundation stone for the medical college in Ariyalur district as part of efforts to take best medicare to every corner of the state.
