Payyambalam Park — Attraction in Kannur

I woke up early that morning, excited to visit Payyambalam Park. I had heard so much about it, and I couldn't wait to see it for myself. I packed a picnic lunch and set off on my journey. When I arrived at the park, I was immediately struck by its beauty. The trees were lush and green, and the flowers were in bloom. There was a gentle breeze blowing, and the sun was shining brightly.

Plans are now in the pipeline to revive the old charm of the park now that the Defence authorities have agreed to transfer Defence land in the park to the District Tourism Promotion Council (DTPC) following negotiations with the district administration.

The park with a total area of nearly one acre is crowded now as the DTPC is barred from carrying out any works in the 65 cents of land in possession of the Defence Security Corps (DSC) Centre here. The Defence authorities have now agreed to hand over the land to the DTPC following a negotiation initiated by District Collector P. Bala Kiran.

“The DSC Centre authorities have agreed to transfer 65 cents of Defence land to the DTPC in lieu of another land adjacent to the Defence land here,” Mr. Kiran told The Hindu .
