ON ONAM eve we get snubbed by Tamil Nadu by its regional satraps, we as Malayalees need to evaluate the causes of total lack of respect for the state in the national political scene.
Wat astonishes me more is the fact that this is in the backdrop of the great respect that Malayaless get as individuals across any spectrum. I can personaly vouch for it for I hav spent a large part of my life in Mumbai.
Why then do we not get even an ounce of that same respect collectively as a state tat we get personally for belonging to this state.
With my limited knoweldge hav put down some points
Kerala lacks a strong regional party for we lack a self respect.
Self respect is a by product of confidence. How can a state that survives on inward receipts of NRK's hav any.
How can a state whose brightest brains r all outside hav any confidence.
It is said that " A Malayalee is the best worker , but outside Kerala"
Unless we get rid of this prejudice and start devloping OUR KERALA as the
"INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL "
of INDIA, we will be snubbed time and again.
MAY MAVELI THIS TIME COME WITH SOME COMMON SENSE
TO OUR BELOVED POLITICIANS
who call for agitations for all that happens in Palestine but hav noting to say wen Railway Recruitment Board goes abt the process of selection without proper coverage in the regional Newspaper, resulting in appointment of less than 10% of localites.
