Thank god! It was the expected moment for many years. Yes. The Nila flowed in full swing, touching both banks. It collected energy from the continuous rain of five days
I am proud to say that I spent a whole day to enjoy the wild beauty of the river. At 7.30am I crossed the Kuttippuram Bridge. The river was flowing like laughter. At 100pm at Thrithala I could see another face of the river from the new Velliyamkalu Causeway cum Bridge. When I reached Thrithala town, there were a number of people who were enjoying the ‘new’ old face of their river. Almost a meter height of the Pump house of The Pavarotty Area Water Supply Project (the biggest drinking water project in the river) was under water. The water irrigation pump houses at and Ayyapan Kadavu and Velliyamkallu were under water. Today the Nila overflowed the Pattambi Bridge after a long period of 25 years. What happened to the river!
Hundreds of people were there at both ends of the bridge to enjoy the scene.
Akkare (the other bank of river) lands were under water. I could see Pallippuram, Perassannur, Kodumunda and many other villages were in red water. Fishing had been there.
The Thootha too was in a wild power. It empowered the flow of the Nila in the part under Kudallur.
Any way I am very happy today to see Nila as a river.
