An orphanage under the name “Kuzhandaigal Kudumbam” has been functioning for many years in Coimbatore with a huge amount of donations and free vegetables supplied by farmers. Following complaints of mismanagement of funds and sexual harassment to the girls in the orphanage, the female employees and farmers association has submitted a petition to the collector, T.N Hariharan demanding that the orphanage be taken up and managed by the Tamil Nadu government.
