DISCALCED CARMELITE TERTIARIES OF MALABAR OF THE LATIN RITE. - Founded on 26 April 1874 by Msgr. Leonardo Mellano, archbishop of Verapoly, at Manjummel (Malabar).

They were approved by the S. Congr. of Propaganda Fide on 9 February 1904. On 31 May 1951 they were aggregated to the Carmelite Order as a kind of missionary province. The institute's specific purpose is the preaching of missions and spiritual exercises and the apostolate of the press. Indeed, since 1876 it has printed the first Catholic periodical in the Malayalam language, Nada-Kahalam. At present there are 57 professed members with 7 houses; the generalate house is at Manjummel.
