Proposal for the Reorganization of Administrative Divisions in Kerala

Report Authored and Published By: Riva T Philip

I feel there is a need to reorganize the Administrative Divisions and Sub-Divisions in Kerala (both Revenue-based Divisions and Civic Bodies). This is necessary for the better administration. It is also necessary to make the village - the smallest unit of administrative division as simple and small as possible. This will help peoples to reach the village office without wasting hours.

There is a need to reorganization the Districts, RDOs, Taluks, Villages, Village Panchayats, Block Panchayats, Municipalities, and Municipal Corporations in Kerala for the convenience of people and better administration for the government. There is also need to scrap unnecessary setups like Firkas (Sub-Taluks), Group Village, Sub Village etc. (Group villages and Sub Villages exists in districts like Thrissur and Kasaragod). This will ensure simple but better administration for the government and ordinary people.

Consider this instance; Gavi is a small village in the Pathanamthitta district of Kerala, which is situated in the midst of the jungle. There are nearly 1000-1500 peoples in this village, mostly plantation workers from Sri Lanka and Adivasis. The nearest village and panchayat of Gavi is Vandiperiyar, which is located in Peerumedu taluk of Idukky district. However, Gavi is included in Seethathodu Panchayat of Ranni taluk. It will only take less than 1 hour to reach Vandiperiyar from Gavi, however it will take more than 2 hours to reach Seethathodu. Hence there is a need to create a new village and panchayat based in Gavi. This is not the isolated case of Gavi. There is a need to create many more new villages and panchayats in Kerala.

Some of the villages and panchayats in Kerala are very small in size, however some are very huge. The Kumily panchayat is having an area of 700 sq. km. This panchayat itself can sub-divided into 6-7 panchayats. Remember, Alappuzha district is having an area of only 1200 sq. km. Mumbai City district is having an area of 400 sq km and Mahe district is having an area of 9 sq km, which is the smallest district in India.

Consider the case of Mahe. Majority of people here speaks Malayalam, the language of neighbouring state of Kerala. But even after the independence, Mahe District is still part of Pondicherry. It will take more than 24 hours to reach Mahe from Pondicherry. There is no direct connectivity from Mahe to Pondicherry. Hence I feel Government of India should take some steps regarding the restructure of Pondicherry.

A new Pondicherry state can be formed by merging some surrounding villages of Villupuram and Cuddallore districts of Tamil Nadu with Pondicherry. The remaining districts in Pondicherry - Mahe should merge with Kerala, Yanam should merge with Andhra Pradesh, and Karaikal should merge with Tamil Nadu. This will benefit the people of these outlying districts of Pondicherry. In return, the respective state governments should provide district status to all these three districts. Hence there is a need to create a Mahe district within Kerala.

As far as new districts are concerned, I feel, there are at least three new districts should be created:
1. Mahe
2. Muvattupuzha
3. Tiruvalla


The proposed Mahe district can be formed by merging Mahe district of Pondicherry with the North-Western parts of Vadakkara taluk in Kozhikode district and South-Western parts of Thalassery taluk in Kannur district of Kerala.

The present Mahe district comprises of three pockets:

o Mahe Town {wards of Choodikotta, Valavil, Mundock, Manjakkal, Parakkal}

o Cherukallayi

o Naluthara {Chalakkara, Palloor, Chembra, Pandakkal}


Thus the new Mahe taluk comprises of erstwhile Mahe district; plus New Mahe, Chokli, and Kariyad panchayats of Thalassery taluk; and Azhiyur panchayat of Vadakkara taluk. The Mahe Municipality can be expanded by including the areas of entire Mahe taluk.

The other taluks in the proposed Mahe district are - Thalassery, Koothuparamba, Vadakkara, and Nadapuram.

A new taluk called Peravoor taluk can be formed in the eastern side of Thalassery taluk which includes Kuttiyoor, Kelakom, Aralam, Muzhakunnu, Kanichar, Peravoor, Manathana, Vellarvelly, Kolayad, Vekkalam, and eastern part of Pattiom panchayats. Peravoor taluk can merge with Wayanad district. Northern and North-Eastern portion of Thalassery taluk can reconstitute as Mattannur taluk and can retain in Kannur district. Mattannur taluk includes areas like Mattannur, Thilankeri, Malur, Vengad, Keezhur, Chavassery, Iritty.

Irikkur should also be a taluk and includes areas like Irikkur, Koodal, Kuttiattur, Naduvil, Chengalai, Malappattam, Sreekandapuram, Eruvassery, Payyavur, Padiyur, Kalliad, Payam, Ayyankunnu, etc.

In return, the following panchayats in Kasaragod district should be include in Kannur district: Trikaripur North, Trikaripur South, Valiyaparamba, Udinoor, Padana, Pilicode, Kodakakd, and Maniyat. These panchayats can include in proposed Payyannur taluk.

Karippur taluk can be form by including Vazhavur, Chelambra , Cherukavu, Pulickal,Pallikkal, Karippur, Kondotty, Nediyirippu, Peruvallur, Tenjipalam, and Vallikunnu panchayats in Malappuram's Tirurangadi and Manjeri taluks. Karippur taluk can merge with Kozhikode district. This will ensure both Karippur Airport and Caicut University to be located in Kozhikode district. This will also reduce the size of Malappuram and also compensate Kozhikode for the exclusion of Vadakkara. The entire Karippur taluk can also merge with the expanded Kozhikode Corporation.

Muvattupuzha district should be formed comprising parts of:

1. Ernakulam district (Amballur, Edakkattuvayal, Piravom, Muvattupuzha, Koothattukulam, Kothamangalam, Makarachal, Kuttampuzha, Kallana, Ayyampuzha, Kodanad, Malayattur, Perumbavoor, Kunnathunadu, Vazhakulam, Kolancheri, Puthen Cruz etc)

2. Idukky district (Thodupuzha, Mamalakandam);

3. Kottayam district (Veliyannur panchayat in Meenachil; Velloor, Mulakkulam panchayats in Vaikom taluk)

The mega-sized panchayat of Athirapally in the Thrissur district should be split into three - Athirapally, Poringalkkuttu, and Sholayar. Of these, Sholayar can merge with Palakkad district.

Tiruvalla district should be formed comprising parts of:

1. Pathanamthitta district (Tiruvalla, Parumala, Mallapaly, Pandalam, Pallikkal)

2. Alappuzha district (Edathua, Mannar, Chengannur, Mavelikkara, Nooranadu, Kattanam areas and Viyapuram panchayat of Karthikapally taluk)

3. Kottayam district (Paippad panchayat of Changanacherry taluk)

Pandalam taluk can be form from parts of Adoor, Kozhencherry taluks in Pathanamthitta districts and parts of Mavelikkara taluk in Alappuzha district.

Pandalam village can be bifurcate to form Pandalam and Thonallur villages. Pandalam Municipality can be constitute with Pandalam, Thonnallur, and

Kurampala villages. Pandalam Thekkekkara village can be bifurcate to form Thattayil and Paranthal villages. Of these, Thattayil can retain in Adoor taluk and Pathanamthitta district. Paranthal can include in Pandalam taluk and Tiruvalla district. Pandalam Thekkekkara panchayat will cease to exist.

Upper Kuttanad taluk can be create with Edathua as Head Quarters from the parts of Kuttanad, Tiruvalla taluk, and Viyapuram panchayat of Karthikapally taluk.

Kayankulam taluk can be created from the southern parts of Karthikapally taluk. Peringala village of Mavelikkara taluk can also merge with Kayankulam taluk.

Aroor taluk can be split from Cherthala taluk and Alappuzha taluk can be split from Ambalapuzha taluk.

The present Pathanapuram taluk in Kollam should be bifurcate to form Punalur and Pathanapuram taluks. Of these Pathanapuram can merge with Pathanamthitta district.

Some parts of Kottayam district (Pamba Valley in Erumeli panchayat) and Idukky districts (Uppupara, Mlappara, Thanikkudi) can merge with Ranni taluk of Pathanamthitta district.

The present Kozhencherry taluk in Pathanamthitta should be trifurcate to form Kozhencherry, Pathanapuram, and Konni taluks. Some parts of Tiruvalla and Ranni taluks can merge with Kozhencherry taluk. Some parts of Adoor taluk can merge with Konni taluk.

Kozhencherry Municipality should be form by merging Kozhencherry with parts of Mullappuzhassery (Thundazham, Pannivelichira) and Thottappuzhassery (Maramon, Nedumbrayar). Parts of Mullappuzhassery panchayat (Mullappuzhassery, Parappuzha, etc) can merge with Aranmula panchayat. Some minor southern Parts of Mullappuzhassery panchayat adjoining Elavumthitta can merge with Mezhuveli panchayat. Punnakkad panchayat can be carve from the truncated Mullappuzhassery by clubbing areas like Kuzhikkala, Karamvely, etc and some minor northern parts of Elanthoor (Nellikkala). The Kidangannur area of Aranmula panchayat should be a separate panchayat along with minor parts of Mezhuveli panchayat. Thadiyur panchayat can carve out from parts of Thottappuzhassery and Ayirur. Ranni Municipality can constitute from Ranni, Ranni-Angadi and parts of Ranni Pazhavangadi villages.

In Idukky district, it is necessary to split mega-villages like Kumily, Periyar, Mlappara, Mannamkandam, etc.
