Salim Kumar ji was a stalwart of the Malayalam film industry.
A National Award winner who made millions laugh and moved us with his dramatic depth, his passing is an irreplaceable loss to Indian cinema.
My deepest condolences to his family, friends, and admirers. I stand with them in this hour of grief.
Wrote to the Honโble Union Minister for Education regarding the widespread complaints over the #CBSE Class XII results and re-evaluation process for 2025โ26.
Requested urgent intervention to ensure transparency, fairness and timely redressal of student grievances.

I hear Cockroach Janata Party accounts are being blocked. Small warning: cockroaches have outlived empires, pandemics and probably a few IT cells too. Block one, ten more emerge from the dark corners. MIND IT! ๐
The Government has constituted a special committee to prepare a #WhitePaper on the financial state of Kerala.

Delivering on our promises from day one.

Thank you to my brothers and sisters in Keralam for a truly decisive mandate.
Congratulations to every UDF leader and worker for a hard-fought, well-run campaign.
As I said before, Keralam has the talent, Keralam has the potential and now Keralam has a UDF government with a vision to harness both.
I look forward to seeing my Keralam family soon โฅ๏ธ
Some in the Congress, and others, are gloating about TMCโs loss.
They need to understand this clearly - the theft of Assam and Bengalโs mandate is a big step forward by the BJP in its mission to destroy Indian democracy.
Put petty politics aside. This is not about one party or another. This is about ๐ฎ๐ณ.

To all my brothers and sisters in Keralam, thank you for your faith and for your overwhelming support.
The trust you have placed in us will be the UDFโs guiding force as we work hard towards building a better future for each one of you.
I sincerely hope that our gratitude to you will be evident each day of the next five years as we strive to fulfill our commitments to you with honesty and humility.
To my family in Wayanad, you have renewed your belief in the UDF with a resounding mandate - 7 out of 7 seats!! You now have 8 representatives working together towards the development of Wayanad! We will do all we can to live up to your expectations.
To the workers and leaders of the UDF who worked day and night to take our message of a united and progressive Keralam to every household, my heartiest congratulations, best wishes and gratitude for your tireless efforts.
May the next five years strengthen your resolve to serve the people of Keralam. ๐๐ผ
Deeply saddened by the loss of lives in the explosion at a fireworks facility in Thrissur, Keralam.
My heart goes out to the families who have lost their loved ones. I pray for the speedy recovery of those injured and strength for all those affected.
Deeply saddened to hear about the explosion at a fireworks facility in Thrissur, Kerala just days before Pooram.
The tragic loss of lives and the scale of devastation is heartbreaking. My thoughts are with the families of the victims.
The government must ensure swift rescue efforts and immediate medical care for all the injured.
A desperate and frustrated PM @narendramodi with nothing meaningful to show for the last 12 years, turned an official address to the nation, into a political speech, full of mudslinging, and outright LIES. The Model Code of Conduct is already in place and it was very clear how PM Modi misused official machinery to attack his opponents. This is a travesty of Democracy and the Constitution of India.
Modi ji mentioned Congress 59 times and women barely few times. That tells the country everything about his priorities. Women are not the BJPโs priority. Congress is, because Congress stands on the right side of history.
Congress has always supported womenโs reservation. We were the party that passed the Womenโs Reservation Bill in the Rajya Sabha in 2010 so that it would not lapse. The BJP could not get that Bill passed in the Lok Sabha. They brought another Bill in 2023 and the Congress Party supported that too. That Bill still exists. In fact, it was notified on 16th April, while the Lok Sabha was discussing these delimitation Constitutional Amendment Bills. This was done by the same Prime Minister. The fact that it took the BJP 3 years to notify their own bill, shows their commitment to Indiaโs Naari Shakti !
Modi ji should STOP lying to the nation โ
1. He should implement 33% reservation for women in the existing 543 Lok Sabha seats under the 2023 law. Do not deny women their due representation now.
2. Stop mixing up the delimitation bills, i.e, the 3 Constitution Amendment Bills with the Womenโs Reservation Bill. Stop lying to the nation that this was an amendment to the Womenโs Reservation Bill โ the Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam. It was NOT. This was purely a delimitation Bill, brought in to create further division and redraw the electoral map in a manner that can only benefit the BJP.
3. Apologise to 140 Crore Indians. Congress has always been pro-reform. Congress transformed Indian agriculture through the Green Revolution, strengthened dairy development through the White Revolution, created our Space sector, made India a Nuclear power, Liberalised the economy in 1991, 60 Crore ADHAAR cards were distributed before Modi ji took office. Congress passed RTI, RTE, Food Security Act, MGNREGA - which Modi ji repealed.
We passed some of the most important pro-women laws in Indian history โ from the Hindu Code Bills which your ideological forefathers opposed to workplace sexual harassment laws, domestic violence bills to criminal law reforms after the recommendations of the Justice Verma Committee.
The BJP has been anti-women in both action and attitude. They have no answers for Hathras. They have no answers for Unnao. They have no answers for the treatment of Haryanaโs women wrestlers. They have shielded rapists within their own party. They released the rapists in the Bilkis Bano case. They have garlanded criminals and rapists. The NCRB data itself shows that crimes against women are highest in BJP-ruled states.
After 12 and a half years in power, in the middle of an international crisis, high inflation, a deteriorating economy, sliding Rupee, and deep public distress, the Prime Minister had nothing to offer the nation except a political speech.
Even with the Model Code of Conduct in place, he chose to blame the Opposition, especially Congress, for his own failures, his own betrayal, and his own apathy.
Lastly, BJP-RSS divides the nation. RSS supported the British against Indians and wrote mercy petitions to them. Every Indian knows that Modi Jis political masters โ RSS are against WOMEN. They believe in Manusmiti, which encourages DIVISION, and NOT the Constitution of India.
Dear @TheSureshGopi,
Are you going to vote for the bill that Modi has sneaked in to reduce the representation of Kerala and Southern states in the Parliament?
Are you with Kerala or not? If you vote for it, then you are the worst betrayer of Kerala and its interest.
