Kuttanad: Kuttanad was reportedly the worst affected during the Kerala floods in August. The woes of the Kuttanad people continues even months later. Thousands of homes were destroyed entirely, and many more were partially damaged, and the Kerala government stated they would compensate the victims with Rs 10,000 for affected families.

Residents say that they have knocked the doors of all the concerned officials but to no avail. The natives still await their relief of Rs 10,000 promised to them by the state government.
