Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has committed to expediting rehabilitation projects for landslide survivors in Wayanad, as confirmed in a statement from his office. He has instructed officials to ensure timely provision of monthly accommodation rent to the affected families.

During a meeting focused on assessing progress, Vijayan mandated a timeline for obtaining necessary approvals to construct a new township for survivors from the severely impacted Mundakkai and Chooralmala hamlets. His push illustrates a government prioritizing swift recovery efforts after the disastrous landslide.
