As time passed, the village experienced significant migration, with people arriving from various areas, including Teṉputuvai, as recorded in historical literature.

In the past, the western region where people resided was referred to as Karuvelanakad, named after the dense Mesquite Tree jungle, that characterized the area.

Efforts are made to ensure that the village has a reliable and consistent supply of electricity, clean water, and proper sanitation infrastructure.

Additionally, efforts may have been made to promote literacy and provide access to higher education within or in nearby towns.

Pudumadam may have healthcare facilities such as primary health centers to provide basic medical services.

In case of more serious medical issues, residents may need to visit nearby towns or cities with better-equipped hospitals and healthcare facilities.

The Muslim community in Pudumadam plays a significant role in shaping the local culture and traditions.

Major Islamic festivals such as Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Adha are celebrated with great enthusiasm by the Muslim community.

The harmonious coexistence of different religious communities and the celebration of their respective customs and festivals contribute to the vibrant cultural tapestry of the village.

The facility is partially funded by the Indian government's Ministry of Earth Sciences, and assists in the development of seawater quality criteria for the Gulf of Mannar.
