Volunteers working for over a week have cleaned an ashram dedicated to Adi Shankara near here after Kerala's devastating floods left it covered with mud, filth and debris.

Activists from the Haridwar-based Gayatri Pariwar were involved in the cleaning operation at Kalady, considered the birthplace of Adi Shankara, close to the Cochin airport, which itself was flooded.

Gayatri Pariwar, a spiritual group, was also involved in providing relief and cleaning homes in other parts of Kerala, its head Pranav Pandya said in a statement.
