Idukki - The spice land of Kerala |
This
beautiful high range district of Kerala is geographically
known for its mountainous hills and dense forests. For
the people of Kerala, Idukki is always associated with
power generation. About 66% of the State's power needs
come from the hydroelectric power projects in Idukki.
Idukki accounts for 12.9 percent of the area of Kerala
whereas it accounts for only 3.7 percent of the population
of the state. About 50% of its area is reserved forests.
There are moments sometimes when you long to get away
to peace and tranquility on a virgin landscape where
nature shimmers in its freshness with nothing but green
rolling hills all around and a morning dew feel that
keeps you energetic throughout the day.
A land-locked district, Idukki is one of the most nature
rich areas of Kerala.
The name Idukki has been derived from the Malayalam
word 'idukku' meaning narrow gorge. The district was
formed on January 26, 1972 carving out Devikulam, Peerumedu
and Udumbanchola taluks from the erstwhile Kottayam
district and Thodupuzha taluk from the erstwhile Ernakulam
district.
Located
in the southern part of Kerala, Idukki is a landlocked
district spread over an area of 5019 sq.kms. Blessed
generously by Mother Nature, Idukki offers diverse attractions
like wild life sanctuaries, hill stations, spice plantation
centers and mountain treks
.
It is one of the districts in the state which has a
number of wild life sanctuaries and offers abundant
scope for promotion of eco tourism if infrastructure
facilities and proper promotional activities are provided.
It is also famed for its spice production, tea plantations
and rubber cultivation. Idukki also boasts of having
the highest arch dam in Asia. Idukki is one of the districts
in the state where linguistic minority exists. The linguistic
minority consists mainly of Tamil origin. They are mainly
workers in the tea and cardamom plantations, spread
in Peermade, Udumbanchola and Devikulam taluks. The
district is highly heterogeneous in the matter of its
people in their culture, climate, cropping pattern,
physiographic features etc. |
