In Kerala, there’s a new word to refer to migrant workers. It’s guest labourers (Atithi thozhilalikal). As the CM to officials started using it, it’s becoming a common word there, I am told. creating new words/culture during #CoronaCrisis

But Mannarcad, where it happened, is in Palakkad district , not in Malappuram! And it was not given by locals, it was kept by farmers to trap for wild boars which were damaging the crops. Sadly, the elephant had it by accident. - this is what the probe has shown so far
