- Sourcing is good: mostly to reliable newspapers such as Mathrubhumi, The Hindu and similar. Citations are formatted correctly. I corrected one where the wrong reference was mistakenly used to support some text.
- The hook fact is interesting and can be verified using the sources noted here.
- QPQ review done on 2 January.
- The article is comprehensive and does not omit anything significant.
- No close paraphrasing or copyvio noted. I have checked each online source, using Google Translate for the Malayalam sources.
- Other policy requirements (neutral wording, length, citations, no previous DYK appearance) are also met.
