Kuttimalu Amma’s portrait unveiled in Kozhikode
When the students of Government UP School at Kallai in Kozhikode decided to celebrate a local heroine from the freedom struggle, they never expected to have guests from their honouree’s family.
A.V. Kuttimalu Amma, a local legend for the people of Kallai, was honoured on Monday in the presence of her grandson and great granddaughter, who were in Kozhikode by pure coincidence.
The school decided to honour the memory of the freedom fighter following instructions from the Department of Education to carry out activities involving students to pay tribute to the heros in their own locality in a larger canvas, on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of India's Independence.

The draft policy for “Responsible Digital Use Among Students”, released on Monday by the Department of Health and Family Welfare, has recommended that parents set structured routines with clear screen-time rules and prioritise privacy, safety, and open conversation with children on digital well-being.
