This year \, in 2019\, it falls on the 27th January. The place is near to the serene backwaters of Alleppey. The best and healthiest of elephants from across the state vie against each other for the Gajarajappattam (a title which literally means ‘the king of elephants’). Elephants adorned in glittering ornaments and accompanied by traditional art forms like panchavaadyam are a sight to behold. The Gajamela is a fitting conclusion to the festival which showcases the choicest of ethnic art forms. \n \n\n  \nThe Adoor Gajamela forms the cornerstone of the ten-day annual celebration held at the Parthasarathy Temple in Adoor. Giant crowds are witness to the 9 mighty tuskers being paraded\, adorned with a plethora of special decorations. This temple\, dedicated to Lord Krishna\, is home to a great amount of cultural programmes during the festival\, making it among the most visited sites in all of Pathanamthitta district. \nWhen it comes to festivals\, the elephant is the most well-loved and the revered animal in South India\, especially in Kerala. Be it just one or be it\, scores of them\, the elephants have an important place in festival processions and in temples. ‘Gaja’ in Sanskrit means ‘Elephant’ and Mela means ‘a fair’. The Adoor Gajamela is therefore a fair of elephants.

Lets Football!!... Kerala Blasters vs. Jamshedpur DESCRIPTION:ISL 2018-19: Jamshedpur FC and Kerala Blasters need wins\, not draws\nThe story so far as on date…. \n \n \nKerala Blasters registered their third stalemate on the trot when they held Jamshedpur FC at the Furnace on Monday. For the hosts\, it was their fourth draw after five games this season. \n\nA dire first half display by Blasters allowed Jamshedpur FC to gain a two-goal lead but David James’ substitutions in the second half allowed the visitors to restore parity towards the end of the game.  \nSlavisa Stojanovic and CK Vineeth came up with the goals and substitute Seiminlen Doungel provided the assists to both the goals to help his team end the match on a high. Sure enough\, the late fight was admirable and deserves credit but how long can the acceptance for indifferent results go on? \nBlasters recorded the most number of draws in the league last season (Jamshedpur were second on the list with five draws) and both started the campaign with a series of stalemates. After one win and three draws from the first four games\, David James needs to ensure they don’t trace last season’s path that is destined to end in mediocrity.  \nJamshedpur have now registered four back-to-back games and surprisingly\, coach Ferrando said after the match\, “Kerala are a strong team. We wanted to win today. Next game is against Goa. They are a big team too. I like to win but if it’s a draw\, it’s a draw. I am happy with it.” \nA play-off spot won’t come easy this season\, with the likes of FC Goa\, Bengaluru FC\, NorthEast United looking like they mean business. If teams want to fight for the title\, there should be a zero-tolerance policy for mediocrity on the field.  \n\n\nTournament: I-League 2018/2019\nGame Week: Matchday 10\nDate: Tuesday\, December 04 2018\nTime: 09:00\nCountry:India\nVenue: Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium\, Kochi\n\n  URL:https://www.niko-inn.com/events/hey-it-is-football-time-%e2%80%a2-kerala-blasters-vs-jamshedpur/ LOCATION:Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium\, Kochi\, Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium\, Kaloor\, Kochi\, Kerala\, India ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.niko-inn.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/keralavsjamshedpur.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Kolkata:20181208T100000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Kolkata:20181208T210000 DTSTAMP:20250617T140653 CREATED:20190110T095139Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190110T095603Z UID:1203-1544263200-1544302800@www.niko-inn.com SUMMARY:Seasons Expo & Sale DESCRIPTION:The aim of the expo is to promote more than 100 budding women entrepreneurs who seek a platform to display their creativity and products in the right platform.
