The Ernakulam Jilla has started this project, assisted by all of its units in 1999 on the banks of the river Purayar, a tributery of Periyar. It is meant especially for performing the last rites of Warriers.
The project is supervised by the the District Committee of Ernakulam and the Perumbavoor, Aluva, Paravoor, Ankamali, Chottanikkara and Cochin units of the Warrier Samajam.
The rites were performed in the initial periods at the Thrippurayattu Warriam, Chovvara, close to the famous ancient Thrippurayattu Shiva temple. Recently this has been shifted to Desom.
One specialty of this project is that the rates are very reasonable
as compared to those of some other similar ventures.
