THEVANNOOR (1968 - 2014) Dr. Pradeep P. Thevannoor, the late Vice Chairman of SCMS Group, was a great visionary and a source of inspiration for all of us at SCMS Group. He wanted to take SCMS to great heights in quality and excellence. A man of fertile imagination and untiring energy, he was in a hurry to accomplish his pet projects. SCMS Engineering College was closest to his heart. He was also the guiding force and inspiration behind SCMS School of Architecture and projects like SCMS Water Institute, Biotechnology Research Centre, the now famous Neera, biofuel from coconut oil, the antidiabetic tea powder ‘Stevia Tea’ and a host of other activities. They were all products inspired and initiated by him. Widely travelled, his unfinished mission was for spreading the wings of SCMS to London and Bangalore by establishing academic institutions. He died on his way to Bangalore for project evaluation on 17.11.2014 when his car collided with a truck and died instantly. True to his nature, he lived for SCMS and died for it.

There was a prominent politician, Professor AV Thamarakshan, in Kerala. Could you please provide details of his political activities? 2. Please advise whether he or his party are in power currently in Kerala. 3. Please advise whether there is any evidence that Thamarakshan was involved in Hindu religious extremism? 4. Is there any evidence that Thamarakshan discriminated/harassed Christians? RESPONSE 1. Could you please provide details of his political activities?

Talking to reporters after the parleys, Mr Chandy said that though the management had raised "certain technical and economic issues" regarding the agitators' demand for 20 per cent bonus, they had agreed with the government's position on the matter. "The management said it would accept it as a special case if the government declares that 8.33 per cent bonus and 11.67 ex gratia (total 20 per cent) will be given to the workers. "Based on this understanding, all the stakeholders, including approved trade unions, representatives of the agitating women and elected representatives of the people, reached an agreement," Mr Chandy said. Regarding the plantation workers' demand for a hike in wages, the chief minister said that "a meeting of the Plantation Labour Committee will be convened on September 26 and the issue will be addressed through that mechanism".

    Working Paper Series Parking Space in Kochi: Issues and Solutions Zeenab Aneez November 2010 Centre for Public Policy Research ©Copyrights Reserved For more information, please contact Centre for Public Policy Research, Door No 28/3656, Sonoro Church Road, Elamkulam, Kochi, Kerala, 682 020 India. Telephone: +91 484 6469177, Fax +91 0484 2323895, E-mail: [email protected] . Or visit the CPPR website at http://www.cppr.in/ Abstract All of India’s cities face an urban transport crisis. While issues such as poor connectivity, bad road quality, traffic congestion, air and noise pollution are constantly talked about, parking is seen as one having negligible effect on the quality of urban transport. The MV Asia study on parking in Mumbai shows that a car spends only 4 per cent of its life in motion and the remaining 96 per cent of the time it is parked (Mumbai Transformation Support Unit 2008) . With the increasing trend in the growth of private vehicles, it is imperative that parking be seen as an important factor for making an efficient transportation system within our cities. In India, parking falls into two categories – Off-street parking and On-street parking. Off-street parking facilities have become popular and are being used by private parties such as shopping malls, theatres and office complexes that recognize parking as a variable that has considerable effect on their success as an enterprise. Customers and/or employees view parking space as a value add to the organisation’s product or service, as they are ensured safe and convenient vehicle parking. The company receives competitive advantage in return.
