==Geography== Pinarayi is from the district headquarters Kannur. The nearest town and railway station is Thalassery which is away. The village is surrounded by rivers on three sides, and the remaining boundaries consist of five panchayats: Kadirur, Dharmadom, Peralasseri, Vengad, Kottayam and Eranholi. The Arabian Sea is just away. For administrational purposes the panchayat is divided into two villages Eruvatti and Pinarayi. Pinarayi consists of 19 wards and almost all wards contains one or more primary schools.
