History of Perinad Gramapanchayat

Located about 11 kilometres east of Kollam, along the Kanjiracode shore of Ashtamudi Lake, the village of Perinad covers an area of approximately 13.86 square kilometres. Perinad was once a part of the historic Desinganad region, whose legacy is closely intertwined with the history of modern Kollam.
