Two floods in successive years and then the pandemic have severely impacted the ₹150-crore freshwater lake project at Paroppady in Kozhikode.
However, administrators are sanguine about the prospects of the project, as things are crawling back to normal. “Yes, floods hit first, then COVID. But, the project is back on track,” said Kozhikode North Legislator A. Pradeep Kumar, who has taken up the initiative with the State government.
