| The Aravanathonis are rotting | Mangalam

Sabarimala: As the production of Aravana has entered the mechanized system, the Aravana thonis, which were traditionally used for the production of prasad, are destroyed without protection.

An old Aravana canoe lies abandoned in the empty corner of Annadana Mandapam near Malikappuram. The need to preserve two canoes that had been abandoned for a quarter of a century had long since been raised. Before the arrival of the Aravana factory when there were no vaporizers or coolers, this aravana thoni was made of steel to cool the aravana which was made in the warp. The cooked aravana is transferred to a vessel and stirred with a spatula until it cools down. Then fill the bottle with aravana.

These are the Aravanathonis who have made offerings to thousands of devotees. The devotees want the Department of Antiquities to at least be ready to take over the Aravanathonis after realizing their heritage and glory.
