A London returned preist while addressing local people in Alappuzha coastal area once said: The children of London are beautiful like red apple and not like these wormy children sitting here. The trouble then started was amicably settled by an immediate apology by the priest.
Likewise Union Minister Alphons Kannanthanam speaks non-sense in Odisha and corrects in Kerala saying it was a joke cracked by him there. Kannanthanam said that his comments made in Odisha on beef was meant to be funny and not meant to be on record. According to him when good beef is available in foreign countries, there is no need for them to come here and eat the meat of lean animals.
This is an outright insult to Indian cattle especially cow because a major chunk of beef to foregn countries are exported from India. It is a major attraction for foreigners to eat good beef while India than cold storaged poor quality beef available in their country.
The main complaint of Kannanthanam is that there is none in Kerala to enjoy good humour. This is true as there is no takers for his joke in the tune; even when there is hike in petrol prices, the cost of commodities are not going up here!
