The Vivekananda Kendram organisation has won the National Water Award of the Central Water Energy Department in the Best Charity category for their work excavating and rebuilding the Tirtha ponds associated with the ramanathaswamy temple buried in the sand at Rameswaram. It is hoped that through completing the Rameswaram ramanathaswamy Temple's theerthams, one may discover a better life partner with the ancestors' goodness, better children in education, housing, farmland, cows, career development, health, and solution.

The Rameswaram ramanathaswamy temple, located in the Ramanathapuram district, is home to 108 sacred pools. The 22 theerthams inside the ramanathaswamy temple and the Agni Theertham seashore are among them. Those who used to visit Rameswaram for Tirtha will stay for a month and leave their sins and flaws in all 108 Tirthas. Many of these 108 theerthams have been destroyed by private occupation, natural calamities, and sand over the last 50 years.

The Vivekananda Kendram organisation began renovating the theerthams affiliated with the Rameswaram ramanathaswamy temple on the eve of Vivekananda's 150th birthday. Former President Abdul Kalam officiated at the inauguration event in Rameswaram on january 28, 2014, and the project was dubbed Green Rameswaram. Over the previous eight years, the Vivekananda Kendram Green Rameswaram project has refurbished 37 theerthams at a cost of almost Rs 3.5 crore. Theerthams of Dharmar, Sarvaroga Nivarana, Parasuram, Gnanavadi, Kumutham, Hara, Neelakanda, Panachcha, and krishna are entirely excavated and rebuilt. Many of the ponds that have been repaired are currently stagnant.
