Recurring floods have made life tough for people living along the banks of the Karippel canal in Ambedkar ward of Cherthala South grama panchayat.
The recent spell of rain has brought misery to around 100 families after the canal overflowed and inundated houses. "Floods have become a recurring phenomenon here. Earlier, the place got flooded only during the monsoon season. Now even the summer rain is causing the inundation," said Sonu R., a local resident.
