A labourer under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme sustained injuries in a wild boar attack at Kurunthodi near Maniyur in Vadakara on Thursday. Shabna Dineshan, the injured labourer, was admitted to the Kozhikode District Hospital. Other workers reportedly had a narrow escape. Local residents said the area was frequented by wild boars, and despite raising complaints, no measures were taken by the grama panchayat authorities.
