As of 2001 India census, Meenad had a population of 29497 with 14087 males and 15410 females.[1]

Transport

Meenad is well connected with Paravur Town and Chathannoor. The well furnished Paravur-Chathannoor road is passing through Meenad. The proximity of this place to Paravur Railway Station and National Highway-47 makes Meenad a major residential area in the district.

Paravur Railway Station is an 'Adersh Railway Station', so a good number of important daily trains have halts here.
