Five-century-old tree situated in Parambikulam reserve
Efforts are on to conserve the legendary Kannimara Teak of Parambikulam Tiger Reserve for the generations to come.
The Parambikulam Tiger Conservation Foundation, which manages the tiger reserve, has planned a collaborative move with the Kerala Forest Research Institute (KFRI) in its conservation.
Kannimara Teak, one of the largest and oldest living teak trees in the world that withstood many a nature’s fury, will be subjected to a thorough examination in a non-destructive way.

The High Court of Karnataka on Tuesday ordered the issue of a notice to the State government on a PIL petition, which had complained about disturbances caused to people residing in the localities around the National Public School situated in Rajajinagar 5th block due to use of loudspeakers with high volume in the school and parking of school buses in residential areas.
