THE 2017 CORONATION OF THE MANNAN TRIBE KING IN KOVILMALA, KERALA, INDIA - Part 001
WITH INPUTS FROM THE PRESS AND INTERNET SITES.
In 2012 (Ejji K. Umamahesh) and my buddy Mukund Vedapudi read an article in a magazine about a tribal king in Kerala who dies due to acute alcoholism. It also mentioned that a new tribal king was to be elected soon. At once our antennae went up. We asked our friends in Kerala to go into the jungles, spot the tribal settlement and get us the date of coronation. We also asked our friends to inform the tribe's headman that we were NOT politicians, newspaper reporters, film makers, writers or social scientists. With the information on hand, we asked our friends who had contacted the tribe to receive us in the nearest town in Kerala, Kattappana, and drive us into the jungles. What we saw and experienced there defies any level of imagination. This is a record of all that we saw and experienced. It is too elaborate to describe in words, but worth a watch.
Kovilmala is the headquarters of Mannan community who preserves certain customs, traditions and form of governance, making them a unique tribal unit. The system of governance here is a democratic - monarchy in which a king is elected by the people to rule. The dynastic succession is through the matrilineal system of inheritance by which the properties are inherited by the nephew. The administration of Mannan community inhabited here is held by Raja Mannan (King of Mannans), the title given to the elected king. He holds the responsibility to take care of the other 42 Kudis (settlements) spread over the various parts of Idukki district. Today, these Kudis are located in places like Kumily, Adimaly, Vathikudy, Maniyarankudy, Machiplavu, Korangatti, Kattappana, Murickassery, Thopramkudy, Nedumkandam, Mankulam, Irumpupalam etc. The king has a council of 9 ministers named Kanis (community leaders) who assist him to settle the disputes regarding marriage, divorce, internal and external affairs. Annual meetings are held every year for the leaders who represents various kudis. These Kanis are also responsible to elect a new king after the death of any king. The current king of this community is 'Raman Raja Mannan', an economics graduate from Maharaja's college in Eranakulam, who ascended the throne following the demise of his uncle 'Ariyan Raja Mannan', the 16th king of this tribal dynasty. It is believed that the Mannan community were the warrior tribe of Pandyan lines, fled to the forest interiors of Idukki at time of the prolonged war between Cheras and Cholas in ancient Tamilakam. Today, they hosts an annual festival named 'Kalavoottu' as a tribute to the nature for providing sufficient harvest. An 'Aadivasi Koothu' is also conducted with the Kalavoottu festival which is primarily associated with the Kovalan-Kannagi story, mentioned in the famous Tamil literary work 'Silappatikaram'. It is also organized during the death ceremonies of kings and at times of official annual meetings.

#Wildlife #Assam
During our jeep safari we witnessed a instance where Elephant started chasing our jeep, Since we were maintaining safe distance, we could move back, this is an important tip for travellers.
If you travel to Manas wild life sanctuary, you will get to see many Wild life elephants of Assam.
As per me, you should ideally do a night stay at Manas National park, there are many homestay and resorts in the proximity of National Park.
