Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren and wife Kalpana Soren recently visited Bekal in Kerala's Kasaragod district for a vacation. The couple were so enamoured by the scenic beauty of the town that they extended their stay. Originally planned as a three-day trip, the couple stayed an extra day, soaking in the beauty of Kerala.
The Soren couple had arrived in Bekal on Tuesday night, travelling from Mangaluru by car. They stayed at the Taj Hotel, part of the BRDC (Bekal Resorts Development Corporation Limited) project. During their trip, the Sorens toured the Valiyaparamba Backwaters on a houseboat.

This marks the second time Soren has chosen Kerala for his vacation, as he also visited the state last year.
