THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Kerala might take great pride in the classical
language status accorded to Malayalam. But the fact remains the language
still has few experts knowledgeable in its old scripts.Faced with an
acute shortage of experts in the old scripts such as ‘Vattezhuthu’ and
‘Kolezhuthu’, which have now fallen into disuse, the State Archives
Department is launching a search for ideal candidates who can be trained
in ‘deciphering’ documents written using these scripts.
