Dredging of Kallai river likely to begin by January-end

The long-awaited dredging as part of the de-silting of the Kallai river in Kozhikode is expected to begin by the end of January. The de-silting work began in October, but the survey took longer than expected due to the need to account for silt accumulated from two floods since 2018. The survey took about two-and-a-half months, with an estimated 3.29 lakh cubic metres of silt to be removed. The silt accumulation in the river has disrupted its natural flow, which has, in turn, affected the Conolly Canal that drains into it.
