The Kuttippuram Block Panchayat is the block-level administrative body that administers the region around Kuttippuram in Malappuram district, Kerala, India.[3] It is also one of the 15 Block Panchayats established for the proper block-level administration of Gram panchayats in the district.[4] Established in 1962, the block's current president is Vaseema Veleri since 2020.[5][6] Kuttippuram Block Panchayat lies in two assembly constituencies – Kottakkal (State Assembly constituency) and Tirur (State Assembly constituency) – both of which are part of the Ponnani parliamentary constituency. The Block is headed by a President and council, and manages 155.83 km2 of Kuttippuram block, with a population of about 229,468 within that area.[7][8]
