Thayagam Maritime Deskதாயக கடல் பிரிவுKatchatheevu & Palk Strait Civic File
Katchatheevu is where Thayagam becomes maritime.
Thayagam does not end at the shoreline. The sea is also part of Tamil civilian life.
Katchatheevu and the Palk Strait are treated here as a civilian maritime livelihood, civil-access, religious-access and cross-strait Tamil welfare question. TLTE documents public records, family impact, fisher safety, and fair-access proposals through lawful civic research.
Not force. Not hatred. Not secret control. This is documentation, humanitarian repair, transparent diplomacy, and civilian livelihood protection.
