The temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathy. The main deity, Mahadeva, faces the east, while Goddess Parvathy faces the west. This arrangement gives the temple a distinctive identity among Kerala temples. Shiva and Shakti are worshipped here as separate divine presences within a single sacred world, creating a powerful image of balance, union and grace.
Battery energy storage systems, or BESS, solve one of the biggest challenges in renewable energy. Solar power is strongest during the day, wind power varies with weather, and electricity demand often peaks in the evening. Storage bridges this gap by saving surplus power when generation is high and releasing it when the grid needs support. For a country adding renewable capacity at record pace, storage is becoming essential for reliability, flexibility and round-the-clock clean electricity.
AZIBs are gaining attention as low-cost, environmentally friendly and safer energy storage solutions. However, their large-scale adoption has been limited by challenges such as zinc dendrite formation, corrosion, hydrogen evolution reactions and poor long-term cycling stability. These issues reduce battery efficiency, shorten lifespan and increase maintenance requirements.
The proposed corridor will feature modern railway infrastructure, including two crossing stations at Ghuman and Butala, 11 major bridges, 121 minor bridges, 54 Road Under Bridges (RUBs), advanced signalling and telecommunication systems, and the deployment of Kavach, India’s indigenous train collision avoidance system.

Curd is a transformed food. Milk becomes curd through fermentation, and this process changes its nature. Milk is generally sweet, cooling and nourishing. Curd becomes sour, warming, thicker, heavier and more stimulating to the digestive fire. This transformation made dadhi important in both household food and classical Indian dietetics.
