With the aim to provide accommodation at reduced rates for women coming to town, the Kannur Corporation is coming up with a She Lodge in the district.
Working women and those studying in government-aided institutions will be given lodging on a monthly rental basis. She Lodge will also be helpful for women who arrive at the town during night.
A rent of ₹3,000 for working women and ₹1,500 for students will be charged at the facility, which is a dormitory system.
Thirty five beds have been set up in the first phase and a mess facility will also be readied.
The completed lodge, which is coming up behind the petrol bunk at Caltex, will be opened within two-weeks time. The lodge is to be opened at the top floor of the comfort station building.
As of now, a similar women’s hostel is functioning under the corporation near Thavakara.
