Perumal, who attended the funeral of former President APJ Abdul Kalam in Rameswaram on Thursday, travelled from there to Marthandam to join the residents whose protests for removal of a liquor shop in the area entered the 1028th day on Friday.
Perumal and some other protesters climbed on a 150-foot high mobile tower. He fainted and was brought down by police.
