A ‘river parliament’ organised by the Friends of Bharathapuzha (FoB) at Government Guest House at Cheruthuruthy, near Shoranur, discussed various issues faced by the river.
The river parliament reiterated the FoB’s long-pending demand for the formation of an exclusive river authority for the Bharathapuzha. It raised concerns at the increasing pollution of the Bharathapuzha.
FoB president and renowned technocrat E. Sreedharan presided over the maiden river parliament held on the banks of the Bharathapuzha.
