Loan.repayment

#Loan #repayment 

A businessman seeing dead at his home in Aymanam, Kerala following an alleged charge by Karahataka Bank staff is shocking. His family alleges harassment and threats from a bank employee. This kind of incidence is endemic in the state.

Upon hearing the news, some political parties rushed to the bank branch and shouted. They said they would decide whether to continue opening the bank.

How can these parties say this? If political parties are really concerned about the fate of debtors, they should open counters in their offices to advise them and suggest other methods of repayment. They also remember that working in bank offices is human, not emotionless robots. Recovering money from debtors is a difficult task for them.

Dam Safety

#Dam safety

During a security breach at Cheruthoni Dam, a man locking the high mast lights and pouring liquid on the metal cable of the dam shutters is a serious problem.

Compared to installing locks, pouring liquid on the wire rope is more serious. It is still unclear what type of liquid was poured. Since water from the dam reaches drinking water supply sources, identification of the liquid is very urgent, even though several days have passed since the incident. Dam site security personnel should be punished for their negligence

It is high time to strengthen security measures at all dam sites.

One more church

One more #church

In the beginning there was only one and at present there are about 34000 Christian denominations in the world. This number will go on increasing.  All were  originated because of wealth, power. chastity, greed etc, reasons.

 If we all follow one Christ and all read the same Holy Bible then there should be only one true Church. Remember, the church are people and not denominations or buildings.

These days churches are increasing one by one. The popular or social gospel which dilutes the teachings of Christ to be more palatable is spinning off many churches.

In Kerala origin of one more church cannot be the ruled out as the happenings in Kochi are in this direction

The accusation by a few faithful against  Archbishop Cyril Vasil, Pontiff's deligate,  of violating visa norms and engaging in unlawful acts, is aimed of creating a new Church

Eastern Rite Syro-Malabar Catholics, who oppose the liturgy approved by their Church's Synod, burning an order of Pontiff's deligate to follow the Church-approved liturgy, is an indication of the splitting of existing church at Kochi.

Catholics associated with the Archdiocesan Movement for Transparency (ATM), a forum of priests and laity in the Archdiocese of Ernakulam-Angamaly, have no plan to unite with Vatican. So, it is time for the Union Government to divide the wealth of church to the two factions based on strength. And in doing so further skirmish can be avoided.

This country has all the hospitally to  accommodate one more Church.

Bizarre politics

#Bizarre politics

Weird is the politics of Kerala. This is evident from the comments of Puthuppally LDF candidate Jaick C Thomas and CPM Central Committee member AK Balan.

Jaick, after meeting NSS General Secretary G Sukumaran Nair in Perunna, praised him and appreciated the secular policy promoted by the organization. "Sukumaran Nair has always opposed those who try to mix communal politics with religious beliefs," Jaick added.

On the other hand, CPM central ile  member AK Balan said a few days ago .  Sukumaran Nair's perspective is wrong and he should apologize to Shamseer on Ganapathy myth issue. . Balan also expressed his opinion that the position of the NSS General Secretary indicates a bias towards the BJP and the Sangh Parivar

Maybe G Sukumaran Nair would have gotten a good offer and that's why he put aside both the Ganapati myth and the right distance policy. His company would maintain the old policy of equal distance between the two fronts this time in the bypoll.

The sudden declaration of the Puthuppally by-election deals a fatal blow to these low profile leaders. All must swallow their empty words without water these days

syllabus conflict

#Syllabus Conflict

Apparently, Kerala is not a state but a country. The curriculum conflict between the state-run SCERT and the Central NCERT indicates this.

The omission of parts of history, political science, economics and sociology from classes 11 and 12 is unjustifiable, according to SCERT. The curriculum committee is of the opinion that these omitted parts should be retained in Kerala by distributing additional textbooks. Additional textbooks will therefore be prepared and delivered to schools after the Onam holidays.

Studying two programs, one state and one central, would put teachers and students in trouble. Students will be in big trouble when they sit for all Indian exams. Do public education officials think that NCERT men are lesser people to prepare for the curriculum? The syllabus must be prepared according to the latest developments, and in this case all obsolete and unsuitable elements cannot be kept in the syllabus. Syllabus makers should think beyond their policy

The ill-informed Minister of Education in the State who criticizes NCERT and the Union Government for altering the content of textbooks is unwarranted. School syllabus making  is not a minister's job.

#K-toddy will not work.

"Toddy is not a type of liquor, but rather a nutritious product. Toddy can be consumed as a non-intoxicating drink," LDF Convener EP Jayarajan said.

So the question is, why did those Idiots make all the noise in public places after consuming toddy all those times?

He adds, “By increasing the production of toddy and neera, one can create more employment opportunities in Kerala” This will not work as the coconut trees in the state are on the decline. Those Neera Technicians who were once content with Neera making are now desperate and turned into lottery vendors. All their investments in tapping and selling neera had been wasted. If anyone asks about their previous work, these desperate men are likely to lose their temper.

In short, toddy and neera business will end up in despair again like any other K-business.

Milk War

#Milk war

The Kerala government expressing concern over the entry of Karnataka Nandini branded milk and dairy products into the state  is unnecessary. Nandini's entry helps the citizens of the state to have a better choice on milk and dairy products.

There is competition in all areas, in education, health services, food grain trade, vegetable sales and what not. So, instead of asking Nandini to withdraw its decision to sell milk in Kerala, the state government should take action to sell Milma products in Karnataka.

If Gujarat-based Amul can find a good market in Kerala, why oppose Nandini's entry into the state. Consumers have the right to get better products at an affordable price.

verification of documents

#Verification of documents.

Reports of fake documents are pouring in in Kerala.  Mahatma Gandhi University lost degree certificate format book and it will probably appear as fake certificates. Young researcher K. Vidya says all her documents are intact but reports say otherwise.

A CPM  worker was arrested by the police for giving a fake “Kalinga” certificate to Nikhil Thomas of MSM college. However, a two-member Kerala Police team travels to Kalinga University in Raipur to check the facts. So we wonder why this kind of pleasure trip and other funny objects at the time of the technology revolution.

If the universities in the country decide to use a QR code or a hologram on their certificates, this type of counterfeiting can be avoided. A QR code on certificates can be used to provide easy access to information online via a smartphone or tablet. The hologram on the certificates allows a college principal or an employer to verify on the spot the veracity of the certificate produced by the candidate.

Draconian law

#Draconian #law

According to the latest amendment of the Government of Kerala,  candidates with degrees  will no longer be considered for peon posts  in Kerala Cooperative Societies. It's really draconian

Does this mean that a bachelor's degree has no value? Does the government want people to quit school for party work before they get a degree?

The bachelor degree is a good way for people to succeed in life. Obtaining a degree is a blessing and of course not a curse. In a state where the government has failed to provide opportunities for everyone, there is no choice for graduates but to apply for low-key jobs. And their applications shouldn't be turned down for that stupid reason.

Of course, there are less qualified people in higher positions in cooperative banks. Highly qualified people coming as  peons can lead to an ego clash, but that shouldn't be the reason for denying degree holders the opportunity.

Uneducated and under-educated people may be allowed to join migrant workers in construction work. Educated people will not be denied the opportunity by saying they are educated. This world is not only for illiterate hooligans but also for the educated.

Toxic air everywhere

#Toxic air everywhere

The fire at the Brahmapuram waste treatment plant in Kochi has become a major environmental disaster. The fire that broke out on March 2, 2023 continues until today, that is to say March 12.

This has caused immense damage not only to the environment but also to public health. The poisonous air from the burning plastic has spread to Kochi and the surrounding area. 75 km to the south, the town of Alappuzha reported an AQI of 300 instead of an average of 120.

Despite the efforts of local authorities and firefighters, the smoke still remains uncontrollable.

Although the question of who exactly is responsible for this disaster remains unanswered, the local government and state administration failed miserably to control the fire. If they are unable to do so, hand over the task to the Indian Army. The state government's neglect to deal with the situation is intolerable.

Open eyes

#Open #eyes

The report that three children from an Ernakulam school excursion team drowned in a waterbody  at Valiyapara Kutty in Idukki, is shocking.

Although there are strict guidelines for the conduct of school excursions, they are often flouted during the actual visit. The students do not obey the teachers who accompany them and do not listen to the local population when bathing in dangerous river spots. This results in immense harm. It is often difficult for the authorities to sort out those responsible for the accident.

The incident above is a revelation for day trippers who enjoy the beauty of rivers and lakes without taking enough precautions.

Students'behaviour

#Students' #behaviour.

The behaviour of some students in our schools and colleges is incredibly disrespectful. For example, I would like to cite an incident that was reported to me by one of my students who is now a college teacher.

He told me: "On my way to home for lunches I often noticed a boy and a girl sitting under a cashew tree. They may be lovers but there the gestures are abnormal in public,  the girl sitting around the neck on his shoulders. I was scared and asked the boy why. His answer was surprising.

He said to me, "She's his fiancée. She has no problem sitting on my shoulders and I have no problem with her act. So what's your headache? The teachers should advise the students in the classroom, not outside".

I lost my words, sir. I said nothing more, because it's the modern age. If I talk to him further, he can record my speech and broadcast it live because his mobile is live on Facebook."

This story tells that students can resort to any type of ugly behavior in schools and colleges. Nobody is to question unless the government takes a decision giving the right to teachers to face such situations.

The state of Kerala was in the news a few years ago with what is called the “Kiss of love campaign”. The streets spun out of control and people feared the next adventures after the kiss. But the campaign came to an abrupt end when the state's chief minister flatly said there was no such expression in public.

This type of approach is needed in schools and colleges to prevent our younger generation from going to the dogs and learning good behavior. There should be an atmosphere in schools and colleges where teachers are treated as guides and motivators.

The Yathra Barat Jodo aimed at solving his Party's factionalism issues in the states and mobilizing the organizational structure is about to end. This may have given impetus to a significant number of workers.

However, the sad thing is what Rahul Gandhi said in Kashmir about the status of J&K.

He made a big mistake in criticizing the central government's decision to revoke the special status of the former state. He said it as a serious insult to the people of the region. This is completely unwarranted and unacceptable to the majority of people in J&K and the rest of the country.

What Rahul Gandhi gained from his yatra has gone ashtray with this thoughtless comment. Restoration of statehood of Jammu and Kashmir with special provisions is detrimental to our country.

The portrayal of a man in Muslim attire as an extremist in the host program is not contrary to popular belief. It was an accurate representation. I say this because all the fearsome ISIS terrorists appear in Muslim attire. Bin Laden or Mulla Omar are not Kashimiri pundits to change clothes to woo Muslims.

There is no need for the government to look into the matter as the show was an accurate representation of the true facts. This does not mean that everyone in Muslim attire is a terrorist.

Governor attending or not, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan not inviting Governor Arif Mohammed Khan to the Christmas party he is hosting is an unhealthy practice

It is to be remembered that

earlier, the governor had invited the CM and other ministers to his Christmas party at Raj Bhavan on December 14. But they declined the invitation amid the tussle with the governor over various issues.

Parties are often held as part of building a strong cultural belief and friendship. Such celebrations bring people together and develop respect and understanding. The current imbroglio of the feast shows that the head of state does not need friendship with the head of government. Poor are the chief minister's advisers.

Fans clash

#Fans #clash

It was reported that the Footbal World Cup celebration turned violent in various parts of the state. In Kochi and Thiruvananthapuram, fans even attacked police officers and in Kannur, a fight between various groups of fans left three injured. Additionally, DYFI and AIYF activists clashed in Kottarakara.

This kind of clash between supporters is mainly caused by their emotional bonds as they feel the need to defend what they support, and this happens more often in football. In football, the average duration of a match is 90 minutes, which causes fans to experience different types of emotional outbursts. And this is compounded by overconsumption of alcohol and drug use. The only remedy is to let the fans fight each other and waste their chergy.

However, if innocent people are attacked, it will be dealt with with an iron fist. Less trouble in countries with footballers and more trouble in countries where no internationally renowned player is present, it's quite incomprehensible.

It is good news to hear that the government has decided to repurbish delegated state government employees to K-Rail offices for the implementation of the SilverLine project. It is unwise to waste the services of employees for an improbable and useless project

Although boosted Silverline as the LDF government's dream project, it was invented to siphon off public money, causing unlimited miseries to people living near the K-Rail path. The semi-rapid train project is not needed when Indian Railway maintains parallel path

justice delayed

#Justice #delayed

It is a fact that law and order in Kerala is in a pathetic state. The only establishment in which the people still have faith is the judiciary. Unfortunately, not all judiciary issues are laudable

Some cases have been pending in the High Court for around 20 years and these old pending cases are not brought to the attention of the judges by the registry of the court. The Court's observation to this effect is correct.

Most of these cases concern ordinary citizens. Court time is mostly spent on cases involving ministers and political leaders and there is no dearth for such cases. While reviewing sensational cases by the court with immediate effect, all ordinary people's cases are held in abeyance. When cases are followed by Delhi-based rish profile lawyers, cases are given extra attention inside and outside the court.

There should be a mechanism in all courts to hear cases within a limited time, because justice delayed is justice denied.

Nevertheless, the ruling politicians directly engage in all university affairs, including the appointment of teachers, violating UGC guidelines. This was questioned by the Chancellor.

The modus operandi of the current Popular Front hartal is something different from the usual method of observing hartals. Coming on bikes wearing helmets and masks, throwing stones or petrol bombs, damaging vehicles and then fleeing, were the modus operandi. This kind of acts could only be seen with daylight brigands. Today's violence alone is enough to ban the Popular Front's holding in India

The measures taken by the police in the state are apparently insufficient. Incidents of stone-throwing at police officers have been reported in various parts of the state. The situation in many districts was serious. Attacking the RSS office aims to invoke communal disruption.

As the largest number of suspected terrorists have been arrested by the NIA from Kerala, the state has been reduced to a kangaroo court.

#Compensate #fishermen

The fishermen's protest in Vizhinjam aims to protect their livelihoods and in that sense it is in the right direction. The unscientific construction of "pulimutt" as part of the port of Vizhinjam, will deprive their workplace. Without a seaside, how could fishermen go to sea?

 

The reason why the leaders of the Latin Catholic Archdiocese have taken up the issue is the following: the political parties have turned a deaf ear to the demands of the fishermen.

The recent trend that has been seen in the coastal belts is that the resort mafia, in collusion with tourism sponsors, are buying up the seaside at a high price, pushing the poor out of the belt. This will actually make the lives of fishermen miserable.

Due to repeated weather forecasts, fishermen are denied employment several days a year. However, no compensatory measures have been taken by the government for the loss of employment. For a storm in Kozhikode It has become a practice to prevent fishermen from going to sea throughout the entire coastal belt. And without an alternative arrangement, it is detrimental to prohibit fishermen from going fishing.

Fishing is the sole source of income for the poor living in the coastal belts of Kerala. And without seaside and work how they could survive. Hence, there are enough chances for a strong protest on the sea coasts of Kerala.

Kerala Port Minister Ahamed Devarkovil criticizing protesters alleging people from outside the district are demonstrating in Vizhinjam is in bad taste. Sea fishing is not restricted within a district. It's cross-district, cross-state work. Even fishermen from Tamilnadu reach the sea of ​​Kerala for seasonal fishing. The dispute will therefore also be inter-district.

If the government has a concrete rehabilitation project, tell the fighters what exactly it is. They should be adequately compensated for loss of work and loss of property.

Stop the liquor trade.

Liquor in the state will become more expensive as the Beverage Corporation agreed to raise the rate by 10%. This will surely affect ordinary people who find pleasure in cheap liquors.

With the bad policy of the government, Kerala has become a country where ordinary working people spend their hard earned money on alcohol and lottery. But the liquor trade is a loss for Kerala as BEVCO recorded a loss of over Rs 1000 crore last year.

In this case, the government should stop the liquor business and turn it over to private companies with the necessary regulations so that the government can make a huge profit from the liquor business.

Staff currently working at BEVCO can be advantageously assigned to other departments where employees are needed.

Discussion of an inexecutable project

It is good to see that the state government has decided to listen to former railway engineer Alok Verma and others who raised strong objections against the technical feasibility of the SilverLine project. Along with Alok Verma, Subodh Jain, RVG Menon and Joseph C Mathew will also attend the meeting.

It is known to all that K-Rail is an unworkable project which does not serve any particular purpose for the commuters in Kerala. It runs parallel to the Indian Railway, causing unforeseen damage to the current traffic system. Other than K-Rail, Kerala needs major development in health sector, industry and agriculture The water bodies of the state need protection. There should be rehabilitation for the oppressed.

Neglecting all this, the Kerala government push for the One Lakh crore K-Rail project is bound to siphon off the borrowed money. This will put Kerala in danger.

Whatever the outcome of the proposed discussion between the experts for and against, the project will not be accepted by the people of Kerala. Silverline is not good for Kerala

As it takes more than 12 hours to travel from north to south of the state by road  K-Rail is a necessity for Kerala.

But in fact, the proposed K-Rail.project will displace more than 20,000 families in this densely populated state. It will cause serious damage to the environment as it passes through wetlands, paddy fields and hills. No serious study has been done on the project.

Many experts have also pointed out that it is not economically viable. Projects that are planned without considering the effect on agriculture and farmers in the state cannot be termed as development,

The Kerala government is heading towards another Nandigram with K-rail  unless it reverses its adamant attitude.

#Confront the #drug #mafia.

The threat of the drug mafia is at its peak in Kerala, especially in the Alappuzha district.

The mafia has developed several methods to obtain and sell narcotics. Their final target is mainly students and young people. And in this process, they even kill those who stand in their way.

The latest such incident is the killing of a person in Kumarapuram, Alappuzha district on Wednesday. The deceased has been identified as Sarath Chandran of Vairankode..  In Mavelikkara, another person was stabbed and a house was burned down by the mafia. There are also reports  from Poochackal' about repeated drug dealing.

The root cause of this threat is the inability of the authorities to act. Due to police inaction, the gangs continue to thrive and expand their network. It must be deduced that the mafia gave free rein with the help of a few unscrupulous police officers

S Ramachandran Pillai's speech praising China at CPM Kottayam district committee meeting is controversial especially when China takes a stand against India on border issues and trade affairs.

Pillai expresses his loyalty to China and denounces India. If a Chinese citizen speaks praising India within his country, he would like not to be there to utter another word.

Some senior CPM officials in India have a close association with China under the presumption that China still promotes communism. But what's going on there is pure capitalism disguised as communism and every member of the Chinese Communist Party's politburo is a multi-millionaire.

Pillai declaring brotherhood with China is something against his motherland. Although a member of the Politburo, Pillai is a low profile leader who is unable to win an election in any þanchayat ward of Kerala. For him to win an election, he must run in one of the constituencies in China

Moreover, the governor is correct in his position because the advocate general had said that he would not appear in the case for governor . There is therefore no other option for the governor than to relinquish the post of chancellor. The Governor is unable to appoint a private lawyer to attend his case in the High Court.

Historic action

The central government introducing a bill to link voter id with Aadhaar is a historic incident. Most law and order issues related to polling stations can be solved with this movement

Election officers are often reluctant to take on electoral duties due to problems with identifying the voter with a voter card or other admit card. In a voting booth where only one party controls the situation, electoral identity cards have nothing to do with the voting system. 

Due to fear, election officials often take secure positions to avoid trouble where some party henchmen control the booth. When the Aadhar card is linked to the voter ID, the vote resides on the voter 's finger and the poll official has no problem conducting a free and fair poll

When Aadhaar teams up with voter ID to stop bogus and fraudulent votes, why

do Congress and other parties oppose it? The linking  of voter IDs and Aadhaar does not violate any fundamental rights. Instead   it stops false votes.

This man with a good knowledge of the English language once confused former KPCC President Mullappally Ramachandran by writing a response in King's English. Mullappally was looking for Webster's dictionary to figure out the meaning of what Tharoor had written in the response.

A similar situation arises when the current president of the KPCC, K Sudhakaran, asks

Tharoor to explain his position on the praises of Pinarayi. To avoid the situation of asking for help from Webster's dictionary to understand Tharoor, Sudhakaran also asked him to meet in person.

Dialectical materialism?

The state government began to think about plans to resolve issues over appointments to universities after Governor Arif Mohammed Khan sharply criticized the political interventions.

Meanwhile, CPM and CPI leaders have criticized the governor when the rift between him and the state government continues. CPM Secretary of State Kodiyeri Balakrishnan said the governor's position on the nomination controversy was a mystery.

CPI State Secretary  Kanam Rajendran went one step further and harshly criticized the governor. He said the governor should not create a situation that would force the state to remove him from the post of chancellor.

Removal of the governor from a post without just cause is not permitted and can only be done by the President of India. There is no provision for the state government to remove the governor.

When the rulebook says like that, how can Kanam say the governor will be forcibly removed? When Governor  is ready to quit from Chancellor's post what is the need to push him out? Is it a part of dialectical materialism?

Dress code for teachers

Dress code for teachers

The circular from the Department of Higher Education stating that teachers may wear any type of decent and comfortable dress during work is welcome. The word "décent" should be underlined.

I say this because when a dirty Malayalam film hy name  'Premam' came out, there were a lot of teachers attending schools and colleges wearing black shirts and white dhotis. It was very bad because the teachers should not resort to childish practices.

Currently, there is no rule requiring female teachers to wear only the saree, but some schools and colleges insist it. This is quite unseemly because the churidar is more comfortable than the sari at work and when travelling. Male teachers who come to colleges wearing T-shirts without wearing innerwear are disgusting. Does anyone think the T-shirt and Bermuda are decent for teachers?

Although the uniform dress is unacceptable, pants (dhoti) and shirts for male teachers and sari or churidar for female teachers are the most appropriate. All other dresses , though comfortable, are unacceptable.

These people only have vaccines with a lifespan of 4 to 7 months. They have no proper explanation for why vaccinated people die from Covid.

The main concern of allopathic physicians is that the homeopathic medicine Arsenicum Album is a 17th century invented medicine and has no valid certification. It is quite foolish to ask such a question.

In Ayurveda, Chavanaprasam is a rejuvenating drug that has been used for years and if anyone is looking for a certificate for its authenticity, they are living in madman's paradise. Chavana or Agastya like sages never thought of keeping a certificate for their preparations. People use these drugs and feel a difference in their health before and after taking them.

Arsenicum Album 30 is not a medicine to treat Covid-19 but to prevent all types of viruses from attacking the human immune system. Since Covid-19 is a disease infected with a virus, it is natural to believe that Arsenicum Album 30 would  prevent it. There are also reports from several families where members who have taken Arsenicum Album 30c are not affected by Covid-19 while others who didn't take have been affected.

The fear of allopaths is natural. If Arsenicum Album 30 steals the show, the vaccine trade and associated allopathic treatment cease.

By this time, tens of thousands of people died from Covid19 and allopathists made huge profits with their vaccine and ventilator. Let people have the chance to have their choice for a while and see the effect of Arsenicum Album 30.

There is nothing wrong with asking the consent of parents of children before giving them Arsenicum Album 30

Vimukthi club

All educational institutions in Kerala will have Vimukthi clubs ahead of Gandhi Jayanti next year, Excise Minister Govindan said. It is about educating the younger generation about the threat of addiction to intoxicants.

It is true that we live in a time when even children fall prey to this evil. This happened because of the indifferent approach of the leaders. Although there is an age restriction for young people to access Bevco points of sale, it is not strictly enforced. Don't care  attitude of the Police and the Excise has made this state a green turf for drug dealers. Even some police officers are agents of drug dealers and they are making a huge profit from this dirty business.

Having established countless Bevco outlets all around Kerala, it is unwise to open Vimukthi clubs in compasses and lament that addiction to intoxicants has reached a dangerous level. Drug and liquor cases cannot be controlled by cosmetic treatment, but strict police action is required to catch drug traffickers.

Futilel hartal

So far, the Kerala High Court has issued numerous orders opposing hartal in Kerala. However, this time the court refused to oppose the hartal on Monday which was announced by LDF and UDF in support of the nationwide farmers' protest.

The court's observation that those who do not want to cooperate with hartal should have adequate protection if they want to go to work, will have no impact. As usual on Hartal's Day, people will stay home watching TV with snacks and drinks. None of them want to make a scene in public. State employees will receive their salary because one of the sponsors of the hartal is ruling LDF.

For the past year and a half people have been in a hartal mood with the lockdown, police case and fine over Covid-19 and they are all set to face the same thing one more day. Monday's hartal is futile.

Deserve salute

There is nothing wrong with saluting an actor of national esteem. Actors like Mohanlal, Mammootty, Suresh Gopi etc., are national award winners for best actor and deserve greetings even if not requested

The related video shows actor Suresh Gopi asking for a greeting in a low voice and the policeman handled the situation wisely. Any debate on this incident is based solely on politics.

#Virus #spreads #quickly

After the Corona virus and the Nipah virus, another virus that has seeped into the undereducated minds of Kerala is the Sir / Madam virus. No one should write greetings Sir or Madam in a letter or request.

After Mathur, Muttar and Ambalapuzha panchayats Angamaly and Paravur block panchayats in Ernakulam district also decided to ban the use of greetings like "Sir" and "Madam". The implication is that the virus spreads quickly

Greetings from Sir and Madam are vestiges of colonial rule, according to these narrow minds, but they have no suggestion for a proper greeting. They are all waiting for the State Language Institute to come up with alternatives

Not only that. They also decided to remove words like apeshikunnu or abhyarthikunnu (meaning I request) in letters submitted to the council or secretary of the local body. Instead, people can use avakashapedunnu (I demand) or thalparyapedunnu (I desire) because the people are the masters and the employees are their servants.

So the question is: could the people use the words ahwanam cheyyannu (I call) or Ajnapikkunnu (I order) because they are the masters. Our state is truly a kangaroo court where all those who wield the sword are enlightened.

Draconian recommendation

The recommendation by the Eleventh Pay Commission to form a recruiting committee inclusive of representatives of the management of private schools and colleges is curious. What else is going in that direction now? 

The presence of management representatives on recruitment boards is a major handicap and a cause of corruption. Videography of recruitment.procedure is a stupid joke to deceive onlookers. What is needed is to entrust the recruitment process to the Public Service Commission.

.

Likewise, raising the retirement age is a draconian idea and poses a direct threat to the thousands of qualified young people seeking employment.

Forgoing free healthcare

It all seems to be a lucrative business for the Kerala state government. A government order setting the rates for treatment packages for post-COVID complications for patients with APL in government hospitals is one indication. The government previously said COVID care would be free for everyone in government hospitals.

There are many educational institutions in Kerala which appoint teachers without any donation. Many of them have changed this policy now. The reason is that the new generation has lost values ​​and all philanthropic men are dead and gone. The same goes with the current government

 

At a time when people struggle to survive the economic devastation of COVID, alongside the ravages of the disease itself, the government forgoing free healthcare is ruthless.

Betrayal

People get corrupted under corrupt rulers. The irregularities of the Karuvannur Cooperative Bank are far beyond imagination. Siphoning over Rs 50 cr from 46 bank loans by a single person is amazing

There are over 3,000 cooperative banks statewide, and these banks are run by political parties. If the party leaders are corrupt, the followers also seek the same path. It is therefore very urgent to take a close look at the entire cooperative banking sector in the state, otherwise the people who have deposited their hard earned money in these banks will lose it forever.

Money and corruption ruin the state. Crooked politicians betray the working class by treating them like sheep. This modern sheep receives fodder in the form of occasional food kits.

About Covid discipline

#Imposing #Covid discipline

A fight between traders and police in Kozhikode over Covid-19 regulations is an indication of poor management of implementing Covid protocols. The current approach of Covid protocols works for the rich and the salaried class while it hurts traders, workers and day laborers.

In states like Andhra, the practice is that it is not the duty of the government but of the people to observe the Covid protocols. Anyone refuses to obey the rules that he alone is subjected to damages and the government has no direct responsibility for this. Strict adherence to  lockdown in Kerala is a reason enough for people to congregate in public places when the lockdown is lifted. And it is a potential cause for the spread of Covid.

People have been dealing with Covid for about two years and most of them know how to tackle it.  So it is high time for the  government to consider whether to continue or not strict discipline in imposing Covid restrictions.

Gouri_Amma, the Red Star of Kerala

The first revenue minister of Kerala state and one of the founding leaders of the Communist movement in Kerala, is no more. Smt K R Gouri Amma  is dead.She was heading the Janathipathiya Samrakshana Samithy party.

With her candidature to Kerala Assembly Election in 2011, then 92-year-old K.R. Gouri Amma has made history and she was a sure entry to the Guinness Book of World Records. Gouri Amma was the only candidate to contest all the assembly elections till 2011 since the state first went to polls in 1957.

Gouri Amma’s candidature in 2011 had raised many an eyebrow for she contesting at such an old age when most other individuals retire from all activities at 70 at the most. The energy she gave to all others was very much as it persuades unoccupied people to do something rewarding in life. Though she was expelled from the Marxist party in 1994, the Marxist leaders were good in terms witth her just because of her unbridled courage and positive attitude to human life. 

 Long live the memory of Gouri Amma and her optimistic outlook.

Con-woman drama ends.

The drama played by various political parties in Kerala with Saritha S Nair, the con-woman in solar scam, is over. She was sentenced to 6 years rigorous imprisonment and a fine of Rs 40,000 in connection with the solar scam.

The woman who defrauded huge sums of money from various people offering to install solar panels was a tool for left-wing parties to prevent the UDF from regaining power in 2016. Even the elderly Ommen Chandy was her target in the sex scandal. She even dared to challenge Rahul Gandhi in LS polls with the support of those political parties who were working in disguise behind her.

Thanks  to our judicial system as she was not allowed to commit a criminal act in the current Assembly election. Also for the next elections, she could do nothing because her prison sentence did not end until after 6 years.

Costly Pooram

Thrissur Pooram will be held without avoiding customs and abiding the COVID protocol, it is reported. No one will be allowed to attend Pooram without producing a  COVID negative  certificate. People over the age of 45 must present a COVID vaccination certificate.

It is interesting to note that in order to get a  Covid negative.certificate, people have to take a Covid test. In Kerala the RT-PCR test costs Rs 2,100. The GeneXpert test cost has been revised to Rs 2,500. Tru-nat is now at Rs 2,100. Antigen testing remains the same at Rs 625. In short, whoever wants to attend Pooram has to spend a lot of money. Children would not be allowed to attend Pooram.

If Pooram is not for ordinary people, to hold it is suspect. Pooram shouldn't be for protecting someone's ego. It should be for a cause.

Of course, festivals promote diversity and bring people together. They increase the opportunities for civic pride. However, if they are life threatening, it is best to avoid them.

Tne regret

The regret

Regret expressed. by  Devaswom Minister  Kadakampally Surendran on the incidents that took place in Sabarimala regarding the entry of women, is good but it will not work because the believers do not trust Kadakampally.

Moreover, Kadakampally is not the only authority to speak out on CPM policy issues. If it is said by Pinarayi or Vijayaraghavan, it has some substance, but the devotees do not trust them too. Funny to hear `` Namajapam '' rituals from AKG centre.

Extraordinary needs extraordinary

An extraordinary issue requires extraordinary action. That  is why the two-member Madhavan Nambiar committee report on Sprinklr was put into cold storage and appointed  a new three-member committee  for a fresh report.

And if the three-member committee report also goes awry, a four-member team will be appointed. The exercise will continue until next May and thereafter God only knows the fate of the report and of the government.

Demonetization reduced black money

Opposition parties continue to cry over demonetization even on its fourth anniversary. Their dream of revalidating demonetized currency is still a dream

In fact, demonetization has helped reduce black money, increase tax compliance, and boost transparency despite its early hiccups. The present investigation carried out in Kerala by central agencies such as NIA, ED, Customs and Narcotics Department, is the consequence of demonetization. Gold smugglers and drug traffickers have to depend on transparent bank accounts and this has resulted in a flow of money from benami accounts to the drug trafficker's account in Bangaluru. This means the results of demonization have been of great benefit to national progress.

Demonetization has also helped reduce sources of funding for terrorist activities

Perverted feminism

Dubbing artist Bhagyalakshmi and others make much fuss in Kerala psyche with their perverted feminism. Feminism is the advocacy of women's rights on the ground of the equality of the sexes and not hatred towards men.

So, the state government opposing granting anticipatory bail to Bhagyalakshmi and two others in the case related to the attack on a YouTuber, is in the right direction. In fact the trio two were  taking law and order into their own hands.
