Kerala Sanchari was a Malayalam-language newspaper published from Calicut in Malabar, British India.[1] It was established by Poovadan Raman Vakil in 1886 and was printed at his Spectator Press.[2] Vengayil Kunhiraman Nayanar was the editor for the first six months.[2] The newspaper changed ownership soon and C. Krishnan took over as the editor under the new management.[2] In February 1897, Moorkoth Kumaran became the editor.[3] C. P. Govindan Nair also served as the editor for many years.[4] Kerala Sanchari finally merged with Mithavadi which was started by Moorkoth Kumaran in 1907.[5]
