A youth was hacked by two men in broad daylight at Kalady on Thursday.
The victim was identified as Kuzhiparambil Reji of Kaanjoor. He was travelling on his motorcycle when the assailants on another motorcycle knocked him down from behind. They then hacked the victim multiple times.
The police suspect some personal grudge behind the attack. The seriously injured victim is being treated at a private hospital at Angamaly.

Devotees of Lord Ayyappa will now have an opportunity to present their own devotional songs at the hill shrine of Sabarimala, thanks to an initiative by the TDB. The temple management board has decided to include newly composed devotional songs by ordinary devotees in the list of songs played through the public address system at the shrine. At present only devotional songs rendered by renowned singers such as K J Yesudas and Jayavijaya are played at Sabarimala, a Travancore Devaswom Board statement said.
