From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Singampathu is a small Indian village located at latitude 8°31′12″N 77°33′29″E / 8.52°N 77.558°E / 8.52; 77.558[1][unreliable source?] It is just less than 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) away from the main town of Kalakkad. This village has historical significance, because people from this village fought against caste issues that are prevalent in this area. Prior to 1900s, only students from the upper cast are allowed to enter schools. Because of this partial treatment, people from this village joined together and founded K.A.M.P Meerania School for the downtrodden and lower caste people.
