In Kerala, the God’s own country, the periodicity of generation of data relating to 
infrastructure as per the suggested indicator is either annual or it depends on the frequency of 
related survey/records.  Since the data corresponding to the year are not available, the latest 
figures of year under reference have been collected and consolidated to prepare this report. This 
report provides a single comprehensive source of infrastructure statistics for measure of 
transport, energy, communications and water infrastructure, Comprehensive and reliable 
statistics on the infrastructure sectors would play a prime role for the policy makers to determine 
infrastructure priorities, track progress on infrastructure develo pment, benchmark performance 
against peers, and evaluate the impact of past investments. This report presents an overview of 
infrastructure statistics requirement of the State of Kerala.  
  This publication will help readers gain interesting insight in respe ct of the infrastructure 
statistics development for the State of Kerala.  
I express my deep gratitude to all the data source agencies for their active co -operation, 
contribution and willing support extended without which it would have not been possible to t his 
department to bring out the publication in time and in its present form. 
This document has taken shape and come out due to the efforts of Publication Division 
under the guidance and supervision of Sri. P. V. Babu,  Additional Director (General). I would 
like to place my due record of appreciation to the officers in the Publication Division for the 
strenuous effort for the collection of data and computerization of the report made by them. 
Suggestions, if any, to improve the quality, contents and presentation of this publication 
are most welcome.

INTRODUCTION  
Infrastructure  sector plays a major role in the  overall development of the Indian 
economy. The  National and State Government has initiating    various  policies and programs 
that would ensure time -bound creation of world class infrastructure in the country  to make 
investor friendly environment and better living standard of the people . This report aimed to 
bring all statistical information pertaining to creation of infrastructure in the State during 
2013- 14 with special focuses on power, bridges, dams, roads and urban infrastructure 
development  projects. The data presented in this report is collected from the implementing 
departments and other official agencies.  
The term infrastructure encompasses the physical facilities and systems that serve the 
public at large. These include structures that facilitate  speedy movement of goods and 
passengers through rail and roads, air connectivity both domestic and international 
destinations,  tele communication  facilities like fixed and mobile connections , internet 
connectivity, power generation, water supply and irrigation schemes. The most visible   and 
important  infrastructure system  is in   transport  sector, since most of these infrastructure 
systems  are directly  influence  the day to day life of the public. The various forms of road  
connectivity developed through central, state and local administration according to the utility, 
powers and financial position of the respective administrative setups. National Highway 
Authority of India and State Public Works Department are responsible for construction and 
maintenance of NH and major state and districts roads in the State. The rural roads are 
primarily with the responsibility of LSGIs. The vehicular and passenger traffic is increasing 
manifold during the last couple of ye ars which demand  for more and more rail and road 
networks in the state. Compare to the volume of vehicles in the roads and intensity of 
passenger and goods trains in the existing rail infrastructure in the State shows the 
inadequacy of infrastructure in tr ansport sector. 
Utility and communication systems are another area of  infrastructure to be developed 
in the State . Utility systems include the wiring and piping  systems that facilitate  trans mission 
of  electricity, water and gas from the  generation point to the end user level. Reducing power 
transmission loss and establishing new lines to connect national grid to  bring  electricity from  
central pool particularly during the  summer season where hydroelectric power generation 
below the required level demanding m ore investment in power sector. Communication  sector 
also having a good infrastructure system in the State by connecting through land and mobile

networking. Internet connectivity also available in the state without any urban rural divide 
and most parts of the state are connected through high speed fibre cabling.  The State is also 
blessed with forty four rivers and about hundred and sixty plus rainy days. But experiencing 
draught and consequent crop loss necessitate investment in irrigation and drinking wate r 
supply schemes. Kerala water Authority, the agency which cater the need of urban water 
supply demands in the State and LSGIs are responsible for implementing rural water supply 
schemes of Jalanidhi. Irrigation department also played a crucial role in creating 
infrastructure in minor and major irrigation projects in the state.     
Investment in infrastructure projects have a positive impact on the development of the 
economy by creating employment  in infrastructure sector, increase the demand of  industrial  
products  and enlarge  service sector and  also  facilitate more productivity in crop  sector 
through the investment in infrastructure projects in agriculture sector.  Moreover data relating 
to infrastructure creation is needed for decision making purposes at var ious levels of the 
government; assess  the availability and improve the capacity of existing infrastructure.

1. Transport Sector 	
1)  Road Transport 	
     Kerala  is having   a developed  connectivity of road, rail, water and air transport  network 
compared to  rest of the States in India. Transportation infrastructure of Kerala consists of 
3.31 lakh km. of road network, 1148 km. of railway  lines, 1087 km. of inland waterways, 111 
statute miles of airways and 17 ports. Even though it is comparatively better placed than most 
other States as regards road length, the quality of many of these roads are  to be improved. 
Agencies involved in the maintenance and construction of roads in the State are the Public 
Work Department, (PWD), Grama Panchayaths, Municipalities, Corporations, Forests and 
Irrigation Dep artments, Railways , the  Kerala State Electricity Board  and National Highway 
Authority.   Agency wise distribution of the Stat e Roads in Kerala during 2013- 14 is given

4.  Communication  	
Communication network in the State is much better than that of most of other Indian 
States. About 5067 offices are functioning under Postal department such as Head post offices, 
Sub post offices and Branch offices. Under the Tele communication side BSNL is the major 
player in the State with 1005 exchanges. BSNL has the customer base of 2773148 landline 
connections, 266875 WLL connections and 6284889 mobile connections.  	
5.    Irrigation  	
Agricultural production relies primarily on climatic conditions. Our  State receives 
about 90% of the annual rainfall during the monsoon months from June to August and from 
October to November. The remaining period from December to May is practically dry. Most 
of the rain water received during monsoon period flows to sea within 48 hours  due to the 
character of the geographic terrain of the state.  There are various methods for providing 
irrigation water.  The best and the most reliable method which can be used for Kerala is the 
construction of storage reservoirs for impounding water during the monsoon and utilizing the 
water in the reservoir for critical periods of the crops when there is insufficiency. He nce, 
major and medium projects were taken up and a major portion of the cultivable land could be 
made ayacut under these projects. First significant attempt to supply water on controlled basis 
was through a Lift Irrigation scheme constructed in 1942. The s cheme consisted of lifting 
water from Periyar River by electric pumping and feeding through channels for paddy 
cultivation.  Malampuzha Irrigation Project in Palakkad district is the 1st large -scale irrigation 
system in Kerala. The project consists of a dam  constructed across the river Malampuzha, a 
tributary of Bharathapuzha and a net work of canal system to irrigate an area of 21245 ha. 
The dam is straight gravity type masonry structure with an earthen saddle, completed in 1966. 
 Malampuzha Reservoir provi des drinking water for Palakkad Municipality and 6 adjacent 
panchayaths.

Ground Water  
Kerala has blessed with  41 west -flowing and 3 east -flowing rivers originating from 
the Western Ghats. The peculiarity of the rivers flowing across Kerala is short length  of the 
river s and the di stance between the high and low land leading to quick flow of water 
collected from the river basin and quickly discharged into the Lakshadweep  Sea .    T he state 
has not been able to utilise the river water sources to a major extent  as  lack of proper water 
management system to control  the runoff through the rivers takes place during the monsoon 
seasons.   There are about 3000 watersheds in the state, the management of which through 
land use patterns, con servation practices adapted to th e topography and soil conditions can 
reduces  the extend of runoff retention and infiltration. L ocal community based micro 
watershed management couple with broader integrated river basin support and control 
management an overall and integrated approach in w ater resource management in the State is 
yet to emerge. On a rough estimate, the source wise dependence by rural households for 
domestic water supply dependent on traditional ground water systems is 80%, 10 -15% use 
piped water supply systems, and 5% use tr aditional-surface and other systems.  
 	
6.   Drinking Water supply and sanitation  	
 Safe drinking water, its supply and proper sanitation are basic requirements of a 
society .  Government of India as well as State Government are committed to provide safe 
water  to the people.  Safe drinking water not only reduces the   risk due to water born 
diseases  but also enhance  the quality of life.  Piped water coverage in State is only 51%, 
urban  coverage 77.66%.  Most of the f amilies depend on Private water sources,  which a re 
usually open wells.  Most of these wells dry up by early March and remain so till the 
monsoon, which are begin   in the  end of  May .   Studies shows  that spread  of bacteriological 
contamination in open wells , bore wells and surface sources.  Sanitation co verage is only 
51.36%  in urban areas and 44% in Rural  areas.    Kerala Water Authority is an autonomous 
agency  established for the development and regulation of water supply and waste water 
collection and disposal in  the  state. The coverage of drinking wat er supply in Kerala was 
43.52%  to total population.  In Urban and Rural areas of the State 59. 39% and 26.13% of 
Population were covered.  The total number of urban and Rural people covered by water 
supply schemes in Kerala was 1.03 crores and 41.6 lakhs re spectively.

7.   S torage  Facilities 	
The storage function assumes paramount importance in organization such as Food 
Corporation of India because of its requirement to hold huge inventory of food grains over a 
significant period of time.   Adequate scientific sto rage is pre-requisite to fulfill  the policy 
objectives assigned to the Food Corporation of India for which FCI has a network of 
strategically located storage depots including silos all over India. Besides having own storage 
capacity, FCI has hired storage capacities from Central Warehousing Corporation, State 
Warehousing Corporations, State Agencies and Private Parties for short term as well as for 
guaranteed period under Private Entrepreneurs Guarantee Scheme.
