It attracts huge number of local, national and international tourists during every blooming season. This spectacular phenomenon happens only once in twelve years, thus it has got its own novelty which is never ending. Each blooming season witnesses an increase in number of visitors comparing to its previous blooming seasons. After 2006, in this year ‘2018’, Kerala is once again getting ready to extend a warm welcome to this marvelous event which will be having its peak time between the months of July to October. The forest department is expecting a total of 8 lakhs visitors in this Neelakurinji season. This study was undertaken as per the outcome of the meeting held on 11/10/2017 chaired by Hon. Chief Minister regarding Neelakurinji Blooming Season Preparedness (vide letter no. DM1/76/2017-DMD). The study conducted by Kerala State Disaster Management Authority (KSDMA) mainly focused in identifying and preventing possible hazards which may cast dark shadow over this remarkable event through effective planning and preparedness on department basis. Approximately 1640 km2 area was demarcated and selected for conducting this study.

  • Understanding the Tamil-Malayali
    Article Millennial Asia Assertion, Negotiation 10(2) 167–182, 2019 © 2019 Association of and Subjugation of Asia Scholars Reprints and permissions: Identity: Understanding in.sagepub.com/journals-permissions-india DOI: 10.1177/0976399619853711 the Tamil-Malayali journals.sagepub.com/home/mla Conflict in Munnar Shyam Hari P.1 Abstract Social identities play a critical role in the various phases of conflict. Existing literature often examines the role of social identity of groups in inducing conflict in heterogeneous societies. This article puts forward the view that the role of identity is not limited in terms of inducing conflict, but it also plays a vital role in influencing the dynamics of conflict. Based on this conceptual framework, the article outlines the conflict dynamics observable in the Kannan Devan Hills village in Kerala, where several factors, over the course of time in the last century, have led to the perception of conflict between the Tamils and the Malayalis. As a major objective, the article identifies the issues and processes of social interaction between the two groups that necessarily influence the nature of the conflict. The article identifies that the conflict between the two communities, though mostly latent, can be seen through three important aspects: assertion, negotiation and subjugation of identities. Through assertion of identity, the conflict is perceived over ethnic lines, whereas the process of negotiation and subjugation of identity constantly undermines the ethnic nature of conflict to specific grievances, thus giving insight into the dynamic nature of the conflict.
