History of Grama Panchayat

Parali, which was part of South Malabar during the British rule, is a beautiful agricultural village enriched by clusters of palmyra palms, the Kalladikode hills, and the Perar (Bharathapuzha). This region, which was part of the Madras State until 1956, was also a major commercial center.
