Recently, an Instagram user spotted a bus in London sporting vibrant advertisements promoting Kerala tourism.

Two days after a recreational boat capsized near the Thoovaltheeram beach in Malappuram district resulting in the death of 22 people, an empty and stationary houseboat sank close to the same area on Tuesday.

Alappuzha District Collector M Anjana said that houseboats in the districts may be turned into COVID-19 isolation wards if the need arises.

It was a miraculous escape for 16 people, including a six-month-old child, when they jumped out of a burning houseboat near here on Thursday, official sources said.

If she's Punjabi, she must be loud. If he's Bengali, he's an intellectual. Bengaluru weather is the best, but the traffic is a nightmare. Kerala is full of houseboats and banana chips. Who amongst us hasn't heard these stereotypes?
