 | | Malappuram, in Kerala, will become the first district in the country to have wireless Internet access deployed throughout the district. |
 | | Malappuram, says Kunahalikutty, Minister for IT and Industries in the Kerala government, was chosen because the idea for the project evolved in a small way from the district panchayat. |
