Hazardous chemicals, including DDT and endosulfan, were detected at higher levels in sediment samples from Kuzhikandam creek and its sub-drains following a mass fish kill along the Eloor-Edayar industrial stretch of the Periyar in May 2024, according to an activist. The activist highlighted the issue as part of concerns over the creek's rejuvenation efforts in Kochi.
