The IMD issued a yellow alert in four districts – Thiruvananthapuram, Kollam, Pathanamthitta and Alappuzha – for October 3 (Tuesday)
Heavy rain which pummelled several parts of Kerala in the last few days caused flooding in various areas of the State and led to closure of educational institutions on October 3.
A holiday was declared by the district administration for educational institutions in Kottayam, Vaikom and Changanassery taluks where 17 relief camps are providing shelter to around 246 people due to flooding in those areas.
