Taking note of the plight of people of Kurubanmuzhy, a forest-side village that remains marooned when the Pampa is in spate, Ranni legislator Pramod Narayanan on Saturday took the initiative to dispatch emergency assistance to local residents there.
Acting on a directive by the MLA to the District Tribal Welfare officer, a medical team visited the location and delivered food kits to the people. Temporary classrooms have been arranged for school students as they are unable to attend the classes physically.
With the causeway to Kurumbanmuzhy across the Pampa remaining submerged over the past two weeks, the MLA also issued directives to restore the lone remaining route to the location via Perunthenaruvi and Channa, which has been in disrepair.
