Transformed into a Desert

Summer had drunk the last drop of water from Bharatapuzha. Kerala's longest river is all dried up as a result of summer sun's fury. The dumping of wastes from Shoranur station is also affecting the sanctity of the river.

Acute water scarcity is affected by residents near  Nila. The river which is having a cultural impact on Kerala, especially Malabar region always used to dry up in the summer. The increased sand mining have affected the intensity of water scarcity. The proposal that Nila will be getting WWF's recognition is still in paper. No final decision is yet arrived on this. The protection of river is highly inevitable in a time like this. At least when you look at the river you must be able to realise that it is a river and not a desert. 

Salute to all SSLC Winners

Malappuram Katha is proud of all tenth standard tots who gave another feather in cap for our district. The 95.48 % victory that you all have scored is the result of sheer hard work that the teachers and students of Malappuram had done. 73746/77239 students are eligible from the district for their higher studies. This is glorifying as once Malappuram stood synonymous to illiteracy and unawareness. 92 schools have scored cent percent results. Malappuram is the first in revenue district level on students who scored maximum full A+. We salute these 2056 students for their devotion. The victory of Tirur educational district on maximum full A+ in educational district level is also adding many feathers to the cap of glory to Malappuram.

Aided schools like PKMHSS and PPMHSS needs a special mention in this brightest victory Malappuram has ever achieved. This is the start for a time of SUCCESS for the so called ‘least educated district’ of Kerala 

Temporary End for the Blame Game

Elections are all done in Malappuram. The voter turn out of 71.2  will be judged on May 16th. At least for a month it is going to be the end for the political blame games. Malappuram has always been the hub and fort of the greens but revolutionary reds had indeed grabbed this so called safe fort before. The 'oldest' and 'richest' candidates lead the controversy dilemma this year. The enthusiasm of maiden voters also attracted the race from the forefront. Malappuram district consists of Ponnani and Malappuram assemblies. The broom and lotus party is also confident at this time to bring a change this Lok Sabha polls. People are not any more mere dummies to be blind and press the button by looking at one  single emblem. Revolution has already taken place in the minds of Malappuram inhabitants. The real result can be seen soon.Verdict is different dear 'Mr. Politician'.

*pic is just an indication. We have neither supported them nor suppressed other candidates.
