Village officers deployed in 28 select locations to arrange relief camps
Responding to the rough weather alert, the District Level Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) has deputed village officers in 28 select locations in Kozhikode district to arrange the required number of local relief camps and shift people who live in landslip-prone areas. Legal action will be initiated against those who do not cooperate with the temporary arrangement.
The majority of those to be shifted to relief camps by Thursday noon are from Kumaranallur village and Kodiyathur panchayat. Families living close to isolated hilly areas, where landslips caused huge damage in previous years, will also be shifted.
The facilities temporarily arranged in villages will be opened within an hour after getting the distress signal. Emergency vehicles and other rescue equipment are available with regional rescue teams for meeting unexpected situations.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
