  • Social Media Stars:Kerala
    SOCIAL MEDIA STARS: KERALA Two people whose reach goes beyond Kerala and its politics — Congress MP Shashi Tharoor and BJP’s surprise candidate for the Thiruvananthapuram Assembly constituency former cricketer S Sreesanth — lead the Twitter charts in the state. Chief Minister Oommen Chandy and BJP state president K Rajasekaran are also active, often tweeting in Malayalam. Due to long-standing alliances in the state, the United Democratic Front (UDF) led by the Congress has a handle of its own, in addition to independent handles of the parties. Neither the Left Front nor its leaders seem to have figured out Twitter.

  • On Mamata's Call for a Non-NDA Platform
    WWW.ACHIEVEGOVTJOBS.COM EDITORIAL ( 13 JUNE 2021) Hello students, All of you are welcome on Achieve Govt Jobs. Here we are providing you Reading Comprehension Test With Answers PDF asked in various exams, which is based on IBPS PO/Clerk/LIC AAO/RRB and SSC CGL exams and other competitive exams. Seed and fruits: On Mamata’s call for a non-NDA platform A mechanism for CMs to cooperate on issues of Centre-State relations is welcome West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s call for cooperation among non-NDA counterparts in other States to support farmers agitating against three controversial laws made in June 2020 seems part of a larger political project. It is meant to go beyond aiding the farmers, who fear that these laws could make them more vulnerable to market fluctuations. But the focus on farm laws, which the Government says would make farming more competitive and remunerative, is an important start. While the Government reiterated this week that MSP for various crops would continue, the fact remains that regardless of the merits of these laws, they were made without adequate consultations with parties, States and the stakeholders. After a meeting with farmer leaders from Uttar Pradesh, Ms. Banerjee said she accepted their request to speak to other Chief Ministers who are not in the NDA. While reiterating her demand to repeal the three laws, she has proposed a virtual conference of CMs with the farmers and a joint letter to the Centre on the issue. Many CMs are likely to agree with her, despite political rivalries among them.

  • VS' Legacy and the CPI(M)'S Crisis
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 VS' Legacy and the CPI(M)'s crisis STANLY JOHNY Vol. 47, Issue No. 32, 11 Aug, 2012 Stanly Johny ([email protected]) is with the Centre for West Asian Studies, School of International Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. VS Achuthanandan's disciplinary issues with his party should not detract from his legacy as a leader who enthused the Left sections of Kerala by taking up issues related to land use, agricultural labour apart from leading various other struggles in the near past. His legacy and the issues he has raised are even more important as his party faces a serious credibility deficit in the state of Kerala following recent events. For VS Achuthanandan, the 88-year-old leader of the Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) from Kerala, as well as his party’s state leadership, the central committee meeting of his party on July 21-22 this year was crucial. The gathering was convened to discuss issues regarding the Kerala state unit of the party. And topping the agenda was the “indiscipline” of VS (as Achuthanandan is popularly known in the state), the party’s senior- most and the only existing founder-leader who had been challenging the state leadership in several public fora, and issues he had raised in a few letters to the central leadership in which he charged the Kerala unit with grave right-wing deviation. The meeting assumed greater significance because it happened against the backdrop of an unfolding organisational crisis for the CPI(M) in Kerala after the brutal murder of Revolutionary Marxist Party (RMP) leader TP Chandrasekharan on May 4.

  • Shri Pinarayi Vijayan Chief Minister Govt of Kerala Trivandrum 25.01.18 Subject
    Shri Pinarayi Vijayan Chief Minister Govt of Kerala Trivandrum 25.01.18 Subject: Petition against the use of the Myristica swamps of Elavupalam as a site for a hospital waste disposal Respected Shri Pinarayi Vijayan, From some media reports (https://www.thenewsminute.com/article/why-kerala-panchayat-protesting-against-ima-s- bio-medical-waste-plant-74174), we came to know about a proposal by the Indian Medical Association (IMA) to construct a centralised hospital waste disposal plant at the Myristica swamps of Elavupalam in Peringammala Panchayat of Trivandrum district in Kerala. We are writing to you to express our deep concern about this proposal. Very recently, some of our colleagues had the fortunate opportunity to visit this area when they were in Kerala for a meeting on Alternative ways of being. (http://vikalpsangam.org/static/media/uploads/Resources/keralavikalpsangamreport2017.pdf). They experienced and shared with us the rarity and uniqueness of this area. From its description in various sources, we understand that this area is part of an ecosystems which is now restricted to only about 100 ha in the entire Western Ghats, that it supports more than seven species of rare swamp adapted trees, hosts a large population of the endangered Nilgiri Tahr, is an important elephant habitat, and forms a critical part of the catchment of two rivers flowing through this region. This area is also located within the Agasthyavanam Biosphere Reserve, is part of the eco-senstive zone (ESZ) of the Chenthuruni Sanctuary, and has been idemtified as Ecologically Sensitive Area (ESA) both by the Gadgil Committee and the Kasthurirangan Committee.

  • The Kerala Election: a Shift to the Left – and a Move to the Right
    The Kerala election: A shift to the left – and a move to the right blogs.lse.ac.uk/southasia/2016/05/26/the-kerala-election-a-shift-to-the-left-and-a-move-to-the-right/ 2016-5-26 Last week Kerala’s electoral pendulum swung to once again favour the Left Democratic Front over the Congress-led United Democratic Front. But James Chiriyankandath writes that this year’s contest was unusual in that the BJP emerged as a more credible third force, suggesting the cycle that has developed in the last 60 years is no longer as stable as it looks. This article forms part of a series on the 2016 Legislative Assembly Elections. Click here to read more. In the six decades since the coastal south Indian state was formed and made history by becoming the first anywhere in the world to return a communist government to power through the ballot box in 1957, elections in Kerala have been remarkably consistent. Coalitions led by either the communists or the Congress Party – since 1982 the Left Democratic Front (LDF) or the United Democratic Front (UDF) – have alternated in winning all but one of thirteen elections (the exception was in 1977). The results of the polls on 16 May were no different: the LDF succeeded in ousting the UDF from office, claiming 91 of the 140 state assembly seats to 47 for the UDF. Yet this was an unusual electoral contest with the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, perennial ‘also-rans’ in Kerala but in power at the centre since 2014, gaining a seat for the first time; the remaining seat went to an independent.
