Domestic dilemma: Not a November to remember for Keralas tourism industry

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Wake me up when November ends! With domestic arrivals remaining unusually low despite the onset of the traditional peak season, Keralas tourism industry has hit a sour note. According to stakeholders, bookings and occupancy have plunged by 40%, making this one of the worst Novembers for the sector in recent memory. Munnar, one of the states most sought after hill stations year round, mirrors the crisis. Insiders say vacationers are skipping Kerala this season, with occupancy hovering around 40% and picking up only on weekends. In previous years, November occupancy levels ranged from 70-75%, making the current slump particularly alarming as the sector heads into the Christmas-New Year rush. Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, and Gujarat remain the key domestic source markets for Kerala. In 2024, Kerala received around 2.2 crore domestic tourists. I have been in the industry for 25 years, and this is one of the worst seasons ever. November is normally the peak, but this year there is a slump in both inbound and outbound arrivals, said Anish Kumar P K, executive committee member, Association of Tourism Trade Organisations, India. Last year, over three crore Indians travelled abroad, while only around 93 lakh foreign tourists visited India. This gap is hurting tourism. High airfares are a major reason, and both the Centre and state should take steps to address it, he said. Director of Stride Hotels Pvt Ltd Sudhish Nair said Munnar has never witnessed such a steep drop in occupancy. Munnar has never seen such subdued season There is no steady flow of tourists. We are getting bookings only on weekends. We have reservations for the week from December 24-31, but otherwise there is no consistent inflow. Munnar has never seen such a subdued season, he said. He added that occupancy in Munnar normally stays between 75% and 90% during this period, making the current slump unprecedented. Observers say this years dip in arrivals may be linked to the Kumbh Mela, with many travellers exhausting their annual outings. As per our analysis, the Kumbh Mela could be a reason for the decline in arrivals, as scores of people from across the country travelled for the event. Another major factor are the high airfares. Kerala is increasingly becoming an expensive destination. Hotel occupancy is now only around 50%. There are plenty of enquiries for the Christmas-New Year period, but they are not converting into bookings because of steep airfares, said Manu P V, member of the Tourism Advisory Board and the Kerala Travel Mart managing committee.

10 Naxals with collective bounty of Rs 65 lakh surrender in Chhattisgarh's Bastar

Ten Naxalites, including senior cadre Chaitu, surrendered in Chhattisgarh's Bastar district. According to a PTI report, the cadres, collectively carried a reward of Rs 65 lakh on their heads. The naxalites, including three women, turned themselves in before senior police and Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) officials in Jagdalpur, the headquarters of Bastar district, under the `Poona Margem' (from rehabilitation to social reintegration) initiative, police said. The `Poona Margem' initiative of Bastar Police has turned out to be transformative, Inspector General of Police (Bastar Range) Sundarraj Pattilingam said. The surrender, particularly by 63-year-old Chaitu alias Shyam Dada, a member of the Dandakaranya Special Zonal Committee (DKSZC) of the Maoists, is a clear indication that the influence of the violent and anti-people Maoist ideology is rapidly declining, the police official claimed. Chaitu, whose original name is Giraddi Pavanand Reddy, hails from Warangal district of neighbouring Telangana. He joined the outlawed CPI (Maoist) in 1985 and shifted from Gondia area of Maharashtra to Dandakaranya in 1991-92. Initially working as a `dalam' (squad) member, he became a commander and subsequently a divisional committee member (DCM). In 2007, he served as a member of the DKSZC, and was currently the in-charge of the Darbha division of the Maoists, the IGP said, adding that he carried a reward of Rs 25 lakh. Chaitu had been instrumental in several deadly Maoist attacks in Bastar region, the IGP said. The other surrendered cadres included Saroj alias Malku Sodhi, a divisional committee member who carried a reward of Rs 8 lakh, Bhupesh alias Sanak Ram Furami, Prakash, Kamlesh alias Jhitru Yadav, Janni alias Raymati Salam, Santosh and Ramsheela alias Bukli Salam, all area committee members who carried a bounty of Rs 5 lakh each, PTI reported. Naveen alias Bhaju Salam and Jayati alias Manai Kashyap, both party members, carried a reward of Rs 1 lakh each. The remaining Maoist cadres, including Politburo member Devji, Central Committee member Ramdar, DKSZC member Paparao, Deva (Barse Deva), and others still have the option of renouncing violence and joining the mainstream, the IGP said. More than 2,200 Naxalites including top cadres have surrendered in Chhattisgarh in the last 23 months, according to the police. (With inputs from PTI)

Blood on his hands: TMC flays CEC Gyanesh Kumar, cites 40 SIR-related deaths in West Bengal

Amid rising political tensions over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in West Bengal, a Trinamool Congress delegation on Friday met the full Election Commission bench and alleged that at least 40 deaths linked to the exercise had occurred in the state, accusing the poll panel chief of having blood on his hands. A 10-member delegation, led by TMC Rajya Sabha leader Derek O'Brien, met the EC officials amid the ongoing SIR of electoral rolls in 12 states and Union territories, including West Bengal. The delegation consisted of Lok Sabha MPs Mahua Moitra, Satabdi Roy, Kalyan Banerjee, Pratima Mondal, Sajda Ahmed, and Rajya Sabha MPs Dola Sen, Mamata Thakur, Saket Gokhale, and Prakash Chik Barik. Speaking to reporters after the meeting, O'Brien said the party raised five questions, but Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar did not give any answers. We started the meeting by stating that the CEC has blood on his hands. We raised five questions. After this, Kalyan Banerjee, Mahua Moitra, and Mamata Bala Thakur spoke and shared whatever they had to in about 40 minutes, O'Brien said. Then the CEC spoke uninterrupted for one hour. We were also not interrupted while we spoke, but we did not receive any answer to any of our five questions, he said. Fourth death of BLO reported in Bengal during SIR, incident triggers political row Moitra said the delegation shared with the CEC a list of 40 people whose deaths, they alleged, were linked to the SIR process. The commission, however, dismissed it as mere allegations, the Lok Sabha MP claimed. Meanwhile, O'Brien asserted that the TMC is not opposed to the concept of SIR, but is strongly opposed to the unplanned manner in which the CEC and EC are going about the job. Completely unplanned and heartless, he said about the SIR exercise. TMC RS MP Mamata Thakur also addressing the press conference, where she talked about the questions raised during meeting. If infiltrators are there, then why are Mizoram, Tripura, Arunachal, Nagaland not included (in SIR process), and only West Bengal is included? They say they are not voters and torture Bengalis across states. People think they are not speaking Bangla, and brand them Bangladeshis, the TMC MP asked. Raising doubts over the legitimacy of previous elections, Thakur added, If this voter list is wrong, are all the other votes (in previous elections) not valid? If this is not voter list is not correct then that voter list is also not correct. While raising the issue of Booth Level Officer's (BLO) deaths in West Bengal, she said that the ECI is ot accepting that the deaths are due to the SIR. Notably, Multiple have died in West Bengal during the SIR process. Earlier, Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinate also claimed that 26 BLOs have died in 210 days, calling it murder in broad daylight. Because of SIR, 26 Booth Level Officers (BLOs) have died in 20 days. This is not some narrative but a harsh truth before the nation. Where is Gyanesh Kumar? The list for local body elections in Maharashtra has come out, showing the addresses of 200 people registered at two coaching institutes, where even a bird can't sit. Because of Rahul Gandhi, this country has received evidence and proof of vote theft, and neither Gyanesh Gupta nor the BJP has a single answer to those proofs, Shrinate said. She outlined the case of Gonda BLO Vipin Yadav, who died by suicide, further stating that his family said that he was under pressure to remove the names of backward class members from the voter list.
