Poonoor puzha (Poonoor River) is a perennial river in the Kozhikode district of Kerala state in India. It meets Korapuzha and ends in Lakshadweep Sea. It is named from the village of Poonoor in Kozhikode district. Even though the length of river flowing through Poonoor is considerably less, the river carries the name. Poonoor Puzha is one of the longest in Kozhikode district which irrigates the majority of farming in the district. The river is normally very quiet and stream looks almost stationary but the inner flow is forceful. The river originates from the hillock called Arikkankunnu of western ghats. The rainy season stains the river and some years it floods to make the transportation impossible. In 2007 lives were lost in the flooding of Poonoor puzha. Environmentalists and nature lovers are much concerned about the preservation of this river as much illegal construction and sand mining kills it. Other prominent rivers in the district are Korapuzha, Chaliyar Puzha and Iruvanjippuzha. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Punoor puzha」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
