Floods devastate South Chellanam-Nayarambalam stretch
The coastal segment of the district stretching from South Chellanam to Nayarambalam has been devastated by floods caused by sea swells and high waves triggered by the spell of heavy rain following a low pressure area build-up in the Lakshadweep sea since early hours of Friday.
The western areas of the Elamkunnappuzha are not as badly affected as the Chellanam panchayat but the situation is grim, said Razia Jamal, panchayat member. She said that Puthuvype, Valappu, Malippuram and Murikkumpadam have been devastated by the floods.

Two members leave outfit; move to expand it at State-level triggers rebellion
Just days after putting up a performance scuttling the prospects of major fronts in numerous divisions in the Kochi Corporation, V4 Kochi, the apolitical outfit that emerged just months before the local body polls, seems to be floundering under the weight of internal squabbles.
Foji John, one of the founding members of V4 Kochi, and Jesme Jose, coordinator of its women’s wing, returned to the Aam Admi Party (AAP), which they regarded as the mother organisation of which they were part of all along, with what they claim to be around 50-odd members exposing chinks in the nascent outfit. The decision to expand the movement at the State-level under the nomenclature ‘V4 Kerala’ seems to have triggered the rebellion.
