Kozhikode

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) today issued an orange alert for rainfall in six districts of Kerala - Ernakulam, Idukki, Thrissur, Kozhikode, Kannur and Kasargod - for today.

Kerala Rain: Heavy rains continued to wreak havoc many parts of Kerala on Tuesday, leading to people being evacuated from certain parts of Thrissur and Kozhikode to relief and rehabilitation camps.

Pinarayi Vijayan said he has requested Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia to expedite the development of Kozhikode airport and also sought necessary assistance from the Centre to upgrade other airports in the state to international standards.

IIM Kozhikode successfully closed the summer placements drive for the 25th batch of its Post Graduate Program (PGP).

The Kerala government on Tuesday decided to ease restrictions in the containment zones of Kozhikode district where a 12-year old child had succumbed to the Nipah virus infection.

The probable cause of the Air India plane crash at Kozhikode airport last year, which left 21 people dead, was non-adherence to standard operating procedure by the pilot flying the aircraft, a government report released on Saturday stated.

A team of health officials from the National Institute of Virology (NIV), Pune today collected samples from fruit-eating bats to find the source of the Nipah virus in Kozhikode, informed the public relations department of the state government.

A total of 68 people are under isolation for Nipah virus in Government Medical College in Kozhikode district of Kerala, said Kerala Health Minister Veena George on Wednesday.

The Union Health Ministry, following the detection of nipah virus in Kerala, has recommended some measures to be adopted by the state government. These include alerting districts neighbouring the affected Kozhikode and increased contact tracing.

A day after a 12-year-old boy died of Nipah virus in Kozhikode, Kerala, officials from the district's health and animal husbandry department collected swab samples from a goat reared by the family which had come in contact with the child.

Two more people have been identified with symptoms of Nipah virus infection, Kerala health minister Veena George said in Kozhikode on Sunday. The two are among the 20 high risk contacts of the 12-year-old child who died, she said.

Admission to the supernumerary seats will be for candidates with a graduate degree or equivalent in any discipline (with at least 50 per cent marks or equivalent CGPA) and will be through valid CAT/GRE/GMAT scores along with TOEFL.

Free charging at the Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) charging stations will come to an end in two weeks and it will cost the EV owners Rs. 15 per unit.

Kerala's worst-affected districts -- Malappuram (2052), Thrissur (1762), Kozhikode (1526), Palakkad (1336), Ernakulam (1329) and Kannur (944).

Air India Express said it has made final compensation offers to all 165 passengers, who were injured and to the family of 19 flyers who died in the plane crash, in Kerala's Kozhikode district last year.
