Veiled Thoughts ׀ Cached Experiences

Today Kerala celebrated its 25th anniversary of being a 100% literate state. (e-literacy and 100% primary education are recent achievements). But at the same time, few issues remain unaddressed. 1. Suicides, Ever increasing Criminal cases and Sexual harassment. 2. Death due to life style diseases and road accidents. 3. Export of skilled labor and high dependency on NRI money. 4. And there is a BIG BIG issue to deal with..environmental degradation and climate changes because of our obsession towards "development". This is not a perfect model which the other Indian states can replicate. To prove that the achievements were not incidental and Kerala is different indeed... Care is not just about KARUNYA LOTTERY. It's much more than that!

Operation flood was an attempt to create a revolution in a system where nothing usually works. Talking about it at a time when humans are killed in the name of cow and cattle seems interesting know? After reading the biography of Varghese Kurien, “I too had a dream”, I seriously felt like changing my idea about the keys to success. He was just a lazy lad and he really disliked his job in a remote village of Anand in Gujarat. T h ose settings were really new to him. But out of no choice as he received the help from Indian Government for his education in Diary management in the US, he had to work in a place which is allotted to him by the government. Initials days were sheer struggle until he joined hands with Tribhuvandas Patel, who invented the idea of co-operatives in the Indian diary sector. The small co-operative grew up into a big brand called ‘Amul’. In the process, their main opponents were not the competitors in the diary sector. Instead it was those officials who were mean

Dear Comrades, What the poet implied is a serious question which interests every professor of literature. And the way they presume or reach the conclusion is really funny. Who knows what the poet had in his mind when he took note of his creative thoughts unless he himself is explaining them. I thinks the same happens with every propounder of religion. The holy saints behind most religions never even aimed at forming or in fact they were against the formal organised system of religion. But what can we say when we are living in a country where people made idols of and worshipped a man like Dr. B R Ambedkar, where some fanatics even attacked someone like Swami Sandeepanandagiri who stood for truth and spoke against some personified Gods? As I am a Christian by records, I can feel free to criticize my religion. But it's a mystery why people chose to form a religion which is not following Jesus Christ and I don't like certain people who will always criticize the church just for the

     Unexpectedly, the quite expected revolutionary changes didn't happen after the last Lok Sabha elections. Huge majority of Narendra Modi in the assembly and his hypocritical nature allowed him to make sure that no basic changes were made to the policies of last UPA government, actually deceiving the crores of voters. It is like two sides of a coin; two faces but made of the same metal. But, coming to Kerala, there are huge improvements and expectations for the local BJP leaders. Most of them, except a few like VS Sreedharan Pillai or V Surendran hadn't had seen the beauty of a media room never before. Now they are called upon for each and every issue and they are enjoying it as much as possible. Even in the national level, they got someone like Amith Shah, one who is accused as the conspirator of Gujarat riots, as their Supreme Head. In this context, VHP's decision to back out from the agitations for Ram Mandir construction in the name of their silver jubilee celebrati
