As many as 8,557 persons were inoculated in a two-day mega vaccination drive that concluded in the district on Friday.
Around 4,350 persons were vaccinated in various camps held in all local bodies, except Amabalavayal grama panchayat, on Friday. No vaccination camps were conducted in Amabalavayal panchayat as vaccination was almost completed there. Around 3,810 persons among them were above 18 years of age and 630 persons in the age group of 15 to 17 years. Booster doses were given to 1,170 persons. Seventy-five special vaccination camps were organised by the district administration as a part of the mega drive.
The campaign mainly targeted completing the vaccination among the tribespeople, District Collector A. Geetha said.

The Ministry of Railways has announced a rationalisation of passenger fares, effective from December 26, aiming to balance rising operational costs while keeping passenger impact minimal. Suburban services and Monthly Season Ticket holders remain unaffected, while ordinary and AC classes see small increases. The move is expected to generate ₹600 crore in revenue and strengthen safety and efficiency across the railway network.
