UDF comeback to reshape political balance in Malabar

Published by Parlour News

The performance of the three major fronts in the three-tier local body polls last week reveals that the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) has scripted a surprising comeback that could potentially reshape the political balance in Malabar. However, the results across the six districts have not eroded the base of the ruling Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI-M]-led Left Democratic Front (LDF), which is politically strong in Kasaragod, Kannur, Kozhikode, and Palakkad districts. This was evident in the number of seats won by the Left parties in the district panchayats, undoubtedly attributed to political mandate, which were nine out of 18 in Kasaragod, 18 out of 25 in Kannur, 13 out of 28 in Kozhikode and 19 out of 31 in Palakkad. The same voting pattern could be seen in block panchayats – Kasaragod four out of six, Kannur – eight out of 11, Kozhikode eight out of 12 and nine out of 13 in Palakkad. Such an uptrend was not seen in Wayanad where the UDF converted what had been a closely balanced contest …

BMC frames SOP to manage crowd on forest walkway at Malabar Hill | Mumbai News

Published by Parlour News

As the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is gearing up to open the city’s first forest walkway next month at Malabar Hill, the civic authorities have come up with a standard operating procedure (SOP) to ensure effective crowd management and smooth visitor experience at the spot. Visitors will have to book a slot online before visiting the walkway, which can accommodate a maximum load of 400 persons, according to civic officials who maintained that safety is of utmost importance as the walkway is an elevated structure, passing through the forest. “Once the full capacity is reached, no new visitors will be allowed on the walkway, unless a sizeable number exits.
