    BUDGET SPEECH 2019-20 By Dr. T.M. THOMAS ISSAC FINANCE MINISTER On 31st JANUARY, 2019 GOVERNMENT OF KERALA CONTENTS Pages Part - I - Preface 1 Part - II - 25 Projects for a New Kerala 8 Part - III - Development Sectors 46 Part – IV - Fiscal Analysis 84 Conclusion 101 PREFACE Sir, 01. In the last year we have survived two disasters. The first one is extreme rainfall and the floods of July-August, which was the heaviest floods witnessed by this generation. The world watched in amazement the unity launched under the leadership of the Chief Minister with precise planning, resource mobilisation and speedy execution under constant vigil and supervision. Everyone, including fish workers, common people, the youth, Non-Resident Indians, and officials had joined hands with the sole aim to confront the disaster. The ensuing urgent rehabilitation activities were successfully implemented in an exemplary manner. Now is the phase of reconstruction. I am presenting the Budget 2019-20 of this State Government, which has undertaken the responsibility of reconstruction, before this house. 02. The vision of Sree Narayana Guru that “whatever be the religion, attire or language their cast is one” is most relevant at this time. As envisaged by the Guru, the renaissance remoulded Malayalees as the ”human caste.” Along with modernizing its people, renaissance also attempted reforming the society of Kerala as a whole. That is why Narayana Guru persuaded the great poet Kumaran Asan to start a tile factory. It was to create a healthy and hygienic society that Guru made his disciple C.R.Kesavan Vaidyar to start a soap company.

Das Jahr Begann mit Vanitha Mathil, einer „Frauenmauer“: Bis zu 5 Millionen Frauen Bildeten eine 620 Kilometer lange Protestkette quer durch den südindischen Bundesstaat Kerala. Sie forderten Zugang zu dem Pilgertempel SaBarimala, der Frauen „im Menstruationsalter“ den Zutritt verweigert. Im September 2018 war ihnen das Besuchsrecht vom OBersten Gerichtshof zwar zugesprochen worden. Jedoch werden die Frauen Bis heute am Betreten des Tempels gehindert. Die indische Gesellschaft ist zwiegespalten, ringt um das Verhältnis von Religionsfreiheit und den in der Verfassung verankerten Grund-sätzen der Nichtdiskriminierung und Gleichheit. Im Kampf gegen die frauenfeindliche Politik und geschlechtsspezifische Gewalt im Land werden AktivistInnen unterstützt von Frauenrechtsorganisationen und zahlreichen Nichtregierungsorganisationen (NRO), die für die Rechte von Minderheiten einstehen, z.B. die Rechte der Dalits, der „UnBerührbaren“. Nichtsdestotrotz erstarken unter der Präsidentschaft von Narendra Modi, der der hindunationalistischen Partei Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) angehört und das Land seit 2014 regiert, religiös-fundamentalistische Stimmen. Viele NRO in Indien kämpfen um ihr ÜBerleBen: In den letzten sechs Jahren wurde insgesamt mehr als 16.0001 NRO wegen angeBlicher Verstöße gegen die Dokumentationspflicht das Recht auf finanzielle Förderung aus dem Ausland entzogen. 2019 waren davon u.a. 90 NRO in Telangana Betroffen, wo Bhumika Women’s Collective ihren Sitz hat. Für die meisten Bedeutet dies die finanzielle Lahmlegung ihrer Arbeit, da sie keine Förderung vom indischen Staat erhalten.
