Narendra Modi in Kerala

Narendra Modi was at Thiruvanantapuram today. This is the 3rd time that he visited Kerala this month. he visited ISRO and announced the names of India's astronauts who will participate in the historic Gaganyan Mission. A Malayali, Prashant Balakrishnan Nair is the leader of the four member team of astronauts. Later Mr. Modi inaugurated a BJP meeting which marked the conclusion of BJP state president K Surendran's Kerala tour. Narendra Modi's presence inspires in Kerala, but unfortunately his speeches in Kerala don't inspire unlike his poetic speeches in North India. he fails to initiate a political discourse in Kerala and make connect is speech to local issues

How the Left ruined Kerala's education sector

Kerala Government is now trying to attract foreign universities to Kerala to improve falling standards. It's an irony that the left which organised countless protests against private investment in education sector is now going all out to invite private investors to investment sector. The students wing of CPM SFI has destroyed the government schools and colleges and shooed away private sector. Now students are migrating out of Kerala and government cannot stem the flow

Left destroyed Kerala's paddy farms and now they oppose Bharat Rice

The Left destroyed Kerala's Paddy Cultivation

Kerala was once almost self sufficient in producing rice. But, at present, the state cannot survive even a month without importing rice from Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. The total area under paddy cultivation dwindled from over eight lakh hectares in 1970s to less than 2 lakh hectares at present. 

Farmers stopped paddy cultivation because of the anti farmer policies of CPM implemented through their workers' union the KSKTU. They demanded unreasonable wages and opposed mechanisation. Now there is severe shortage of labourers. Moreover, Kerala government has failed on the procurement front too.

Who will win Thrissur Lok Sabha Seat?

Who will win Thrissur Lok Sabha Seat? 

 The candidate line up of Thrissur Lok Sabha seat is now almost clear. Sitting MP TN Prathapan is likely to be the UDF candidate. Sures Gopi is expected to be the NDA candidate. VS Sunil Kumar ise th LDF candidate. This is a primary analysis of Thrissur. It seems a real three cornered contest is on the cards and this is one seat where the BJP has a real chance. But there are some factors that could prevent it too.

Love Marriages Devastate Kerala Families

A couple Unnikrishna Pillai andh Bindu committed suicide recently at Pavumba in Kollam, after their daughter ran away with a youth from another caste. The next day after the mishap, a husband set on fire his wife at Cherthala. Their marriage was love marriage. Such mishaps exemplify Kerala's social crisis.  Love marriages can't be wished away in present times, but lovers should be fully aware of the tough life ahead, without help from families. Or ehlse, they will share the fate of Cherthala couple.

Unnikrishna Pillai's mishap should spark an introspection among Nairs though it's not just Nairs who are facing the crisis. All communities in Kerala are opposing love marriages, every group resists it. NSS should allow partners of Nair boys and girls from other communities to join NSS. Practicing exclusivity is not advisable. Namboothiris who practiced exclusivity have now become demographically insignificant in Kerala. Nairs should not follow it.
