Professor Sudheesh
Professor (commonly abbreviated as Prof.) is an academic rank at universities and other post-secondary education and research institutions in most countries.

Kerala State lies in the south-west part of India.

This was implemented through the People's Plan Campaign (PPC) under the joint supervision of the Department of Local Self-Government and State Planning Board. New Government in power In 1996 on assuming power, the ruling Left Democratic Front (LDF) took the agenda of decentralization as the first priority item. Outcome Studies on the performanc ...
