|
|
Munnar |
|
Munnar is almost full of tea estates and has thick forest cover. Most of the people
work in tea estates and many of them are labourers (to pluck the tea leaves). The
majority of the tea estates (approx 27/30) are owned by Tata Tea, one of the Tata
Group of companies. In fact, the entire area is known as the Kannan Devan Hills,
from which the famous brand of the Tatas gets its name. |
