@gaurravbhrdwj @pushkardhami @Uttrakhand_News @ukcmo @IBCA_official Wild animals are a major problem in Kerala where no forest encroachment is happening. Forests are well protected here . Actually forest area is increasing due to many farmers abandoning farming. Increase in the numbers of wild animals is the problem here .

@HappymonJacob Happy to see a well argumented article from @HappymonJacob after a long time.

One thing you missed is how many neighbouring countries were represented by head of the government except Armenia . Even Erdogan , a so called close friend of Iran , did not chose to attend.

@DearthOfSid Congratulations and best wishes , Siddarth.

@Jasonphilip8 Wishing you a speedy recovery Dr Jaison Philip. Look forward to hearing about your progress .

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasG]

@RishiJoeSanu He is one of the most unproductive officers in Kerala cadre . IIT degree would not take you anywhere if you cannot get along with people .There are so many ethical officers in Kerala cadre like B Ashok ,P. Vijayan and retired officers like T.K Jose who promoted Kudumbasree .

@InsideLucysHead You thought he became a Pope after Kindergarten.

@RishiJoeSanu I understand that you are an entrepreneur in Kerala.I would like to come and meet you at a time convenient for you.I just want to understand what kind of socialist rules are hindering your business in Kerala.I am also an entrepreneur in Kerala and have not come across any of this

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasG]

@VarierAravind Many of the guest workers are working in Food Processing companies and better tech Agro Farms including Dairy Farms . I am seeing this first hand as a Food Processing entrepreneur.

@grok @RishiJoeSanu @minicnair 3) Kerala provides all the basic facilities so that people can take an informed decision on what do they want with their life . Whether they want to live here or in other States or Countries .I think that is what is required rather than some notional figures of GSDP growth.

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasG]

@grok @RishiJoeSanu @minicnair 2) 27 % of the people here have four wheelers.Good roads are there .Our people are not migrating via Darien Gap. Do you prefer all the people to live in Kerala as factory workers or where many are enjoying good life and good income even if they in a different Country.

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasG]

@grok @RishiJoeSanu @minicnair 1) The model you are promoting is where some people are enormously rich and most people living in poverty. Kerala model is where wealth is more or less evenly distributed.Most people enjoy good quality life .Educationion ,healthcare facilities are available to all the people.

@ceepee07 @TaraBull @grok what is this exactly

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasG]

@Will_Tanner_1 Portuguese and Dutch also ruled parts of Kerala. They brought in lots of plants, trees etc which are now part of our everyday life.Many of the cuisines shared by them as well as British are part of every day menu. Those rulers were generally peaceful also.

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasG]

@Will_Tanner_1 I am from Kerala in Southern part of India.British ruled us for around two hundred years .They brought in so many developments like roads,railways,ports , education,healthcare,plantations, industries eg.They may have done some of it for their benefits but it benefitted us also.

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasG]

@advsanjoy @grok what is happening here

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasG]

@VarierAravind Roads have never been this good .Power situation has improved a lot .Health care, education are best in the country. Corruption is zero for ethical businesses . Many IT companies are coming to the State. And startups as well. Wondering why some people can't see any of this.

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasG]

@RishiJoeSanu Kerala now grows seventy five percent of its vegetables. And produces eighty five percent of its milk requirement . And we pay for what ever we are getting from other States . There is no situation of PL 480 in Kerala now . Talk to these people with data and confidence.

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasG]

@RishiJoeSanu You are totally wrong that guest workers have higher productivity. We had around fifteen of them till recently. Now ten malayalees do the same job and in a better way. Paying slightly higher salary to Malayalees but overall cost is less because of higher productivity.

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasG]

@daojus None of us are here because of any industries minister .We identified opportunities and promoted successful ventures .There are atleast 10000 Food Processing Units in Kerala in the MSME category. And Kerala is providing meaningful employment to 3.5 million guest workers.
