About Babu Varghese

Lived 1951 – 2011 (aged 60).

Babu Varghese (28 January 1951, Kerala, India – 18 October 2011) helped to make the South Indian state of Kerala, and in particular the image of houseboats on the Kerala backwaters, a notable tourist destination.

Life

Varghese took a master's degree in zoology and behavioral science. The popular symbol of Kerala is a houseboat mainly because of Varghese. Converted Eru-madoms, traditional tribal treetop dwellings such as at Wayanad, have become tourist destinations.
