The PM picture speaks for all - The most dreaded,negative,criminal,poisonous,villainous mind and person of Indian politics today. A disgrace to PM chair, a curse to India, a deadly disease rapidly plaguing india. The earlier we get rid of these bjp rss poisonous snakes better for our nation.

But biharis are getting kerelian cute madams along with peanuts. This is where biharis are in advantage. Bengalis and Kerelians, only two beauties are amazing.

Keralites are doing in middle east what Biharis and U.Pites and Chattisgarhis and Jharkhandis and Oriyas and M.Pites cannot do in the middle east only because the latter do not have even the basic requirement of a matriculation certificate that employers of low end jobs such as drivers, shop assistants, construction machinery operators, etc in the GCC countries are bound by their laws to insist on !
That is why people drawn mainly from the lower middle classes in Kerala work in the GCC while Biharis, Jharkhandis, M.Pites, Oriyas, etc work in Kerala and take the places of those who go to the GCC !!
No use pretending that this big fact - the difference in education levels between north Indians and Keralites - does not exist !

Have read extracts. Only one bit of data that I quoted (I quoted CDS migration survey report of 2008) is different, viz, expats contribute 22 % of the state GDP while this report of 2016 says it is 31 %.
Other than this, which data of mine is incorrect ?
Read the report fully. Without remittances by expats, per capita income in Kerala is Rs 51000 while with remittances, it is Rs 67400 (which means 24 % of the income in Kerala is due to remittances)

What is new is that your conclusion that remittances from expat keralites is not significant while the paper clearly rpoves that it is significant.
Also, your calculation that 51000 per capita income (without remittance) does not consider the cumulative effect of remittances (to Kerala) over last 30 years which has increased from 3000 crores in 1991 to more than 80000 crores in 2014.
Kerala has no industry and it's agricultural income is just 7.1% of it's GDP. It's the tertiary (services) sector which is booming, mainly riding on the back of expat remittances from Gulf.
This led to improvement in education level (also because more and more keralites want to immigrate and hence prefer to educate their children).
Kerala's government had very little to do with the high HDI in Kerala. Same party's government in West Bengal has delivered very little for the people of W Bengal.

No industry in Kerala and no industry in W Bengal. Look at the financial position of W Bengal for which CPIM is largely responsible. Kerala got saved from CPIM because of expat keralites.

No industry in Kerala ? According to the state Industries department as well as the Niti Aayog, 26 % of Keralas GDP is contributed by the manufacturing sector (12 % by agriculture and 62 % by services). And which are the industries ?
Rubber goods manufacturing !
Tea processing !
Sea food processing and export !
Granite quarries !
Furniture making ! Plywood industry !
Construction material (like TMT bars) making !
Heavy and rare metals extraction (from the mineral rich sands of Keralas coast) !
Besides, there is a large public sector in manufacturing ! (Cochin Refinery, Cochin Shipyard, FACT, HOCL, ISRO, Hindustan Newsprint, Kerala Minerals & Metals, etc.)
Now, why have you avoided my main point (Land reforms breaking the strangle hold of feudalism and its exploitation in Kerala and thus breaking the back of poverty) ?
Can you name a single other state that has comprehensively implemented land reforms (which is a constitutional mandate) ?

The Gulf Boom started in the 1970s. If you look at Keralas HDI even before that, it was almost many times higher than the national average. In 1951, for example, Kerala had a literacy rate of 51 %, while the national average was 18 % (Census survey).
What the Gulf boom did was offer a middle class lifestyle to a large section of people, increasing access to higher education and privatized healthcare. But access to basic education and sanitation and healthcare was much better and much more widespread than national standards long before that.
So yes, the Gulf boom had a cascading effect on an already high HDI. But attributing a high HDI solely to the Gulf boom is in-correct and borne out of ignorance.
Regarding remittances from GCC, the fact remains. 31 % (I mentioned 22 % from the 2008 migration survey report; this has since become 31 % as per the 2015 report) of Keralas net income is earned by about 20 % of its population who are expats. 20 % of the population earning 31 % of the states income is nothing all that extraordinary.
In any case, one of the big facts that you are trying to avoid is that while the lower middle classes and poor of North India just do not have even the basic education to get themselves jobs in GCC and other countries, Keralites have it !

Correct, agree with Mr Patel and not because he is a patidar ! He is as much a patidar as Modi is an OBC! Have UP folks voted for Mayawati who is from much more socially backward community? Didn't BJP cry hoarse against caste politics in Bihar?
Rahul Gandhi has effectively neutralized the hindutva topic and the prime minister is lost narrating stories, which people won't care as much as the emotive religious flares.
Also consider, the gujaratis probably know that if they didn't get anything in the last 3 years, they won't get in the future either. The incumbent cm is hopeless and any hopes of the bjp president projecting himself in the future will be dashed by the people. In other words, no one can match Modi and he won't directly contribute to Gujarat any longer. People will make an assessment and create a situation where they will be back in demand, instead of being taken for granted.
Narmada waters reaching the arid areas is as true as the stopping of black money with demonetization. All claims as khokla as a dhokla!
Actually my reading of Mani Shankar Iyer is he is not trustworthy.After Rajiv this fellow has got a raw deal from the family and no wonder he pulls them down at the earliest opportunity acting as the trojan horse.The loud mouth is a big liability for the party for sure.With such politicians in the party no wonder it is in wilderness.
