PARK PLAN
The idea for the theme park, the first of its kind to be promoted by the CPI-M in the country, was conceived in 2001. Party leader E.P. Jayarajan was the first chairman of the Malabar Tourism Development Co-operative Limited (MTDCL), which floated the park. To bypass the hurdles a co-operative society might have to face in mobilising funds, MTDCL formed Malabar Pleasures (India) Limited as the money-generating channel for the park.
