A village on the edge: 610 families fight for their homes, faith and future in Munambam

In Munambam, a fishing village in Kerala’s Ernakulam district, 610 families face the threat of losing not just their homes but also their history, faith, and future. From churches and cemeteries to marriages and education, every aspect of life here is overshadowed by a decades-old land dispute tied to Waqf claims.

Watch to understand why Munambam’s fight is more than a land dispute — it’s a struggle for survival, legacy, and the simple right to call their land their own.
