Kerala is the most refined and homogenous state in India co-existing for ages without cast, cultural and religious prejudices. People inter act with each other in a very dignified and cordial way with out interfering in each others personal or religious matters. Middle East bloom has helped Muslims, Christians and the Hindus too and you can vitness the prosperity by visiting Kerala. Beef is relished by most of the Keralits and there is no taboo as such. Off late, the rabid communal elements are trying to vitiate the calm inter cast and communal understanding within the state by discovering divisive and out dated doctrines. Hope, Keralites will resist such onslaughts and remain different from petty prejudices.

Saheb, as long as your agenda is met, you will hail Kerala. If there are some communal elements in Kerala it is the Muslim community and Christians. A Hindu, by nature cannot be a communalist.

It is mere polical comment. In our country Vegetarians must be less than 5% of total population and they are only speaking of agst. Vegetarian includes irrespective of all communities and religion. Mostly beef eaters are only from poor people of all communities and religion. At certain age after, many literate rich are switch over to pure vegetarian due to health conscious.
There are quiet a few BJP haters in India. But this women is trying to get some sensational statements form this BJP leader. None of the questions are straight forward. The headline is sensational. There is a very strong space between personal prejudice and journalistic abilites. Shobha seems to trample on everything.
Such blanket statements are quite dangerous. But I understand why he is making such statements. To build base at a place where you do not have any support, you create fear psychosis and polarize the society to such an extent that one section of people start considering you as their savior. That's precisely what BJP has done elsewhere in the country. They are trying to repeat the same in Kerala. However, they won't succeed in Kerala.
Mr.Muraleedharan, your party, LDF and UDF are in coalition course and fooling the people. You people attend the marriage ceremonies and other functions of political adversaries even when the ordinary workers are getting killed on the streets of Kerala on petty political differences. The political parties in Kerala are stooped to the level of Martyr producing machines for protecting the interest of political masters and also for electoral gains. And Mr. Muraleedharan your party is also not an exception.
If you people have the will to stop these killings, it can be stopped with one statement of leaders, especially of CPIM & BJP, that those who indulge in killings will not have any place in the party. But the leaders want it to continue as their relatives are not being killed but the poorest of poor belonging to both parties.
Before talking about Kashmir etc. please do something to stop these killings and stop shedding crocodile tears.
