President Trump has most appropriately renamed US Department of Defence as Department of War. USA has been continuously at war for regime changes (more than 6 dozen in all) in the Post- War period in pursuit of its neo-colonial interests.He indeed deserves Nobel Prize for peace.

Another real Kerala story. As per latest SRS Report (2023),infant mortality rate of Kerala has declined to 5. The IMR for USA is 5.6. And for India, the average is 25.There is big gap between rural (28) and urban(19) in the country. In Kerala it is uniformly low.

GST reform is a big set back for fiscal federalism and ideal of welfare state. The reduction in average GST rate from 15.3% in 2017 to 9.8% in 2025 will severely erode the fiscal capacity of states.GoI has prioritised corporate profit and ease of doing business over welfare.

Did GoI at any time during negotiations concede to remove all tariffs on imports to India,as Trump now claims. Was Modi willing to make Indian farmers a sacrificial pawn in the high stake game with Trump? Good that we chose to stand with BRICS, but PM must respond to Trump.

Arbitrary reductions in GST rates machinated by Union Govt is playing havoc with state finances.Revenue neutral rate of 15.3%proclaimed in 2017 has been scuttled to 9.8%. The expectations regarding increase in purchasing power and consumption neutralising revenue loss is trash.

American sanctions against India with 50% prohibitive tariffs is an exhibition of total failure PM Modi’s foreign policy and diplomacy. Instead of dividing people on communal lines and stealing elections through votescams,unite the nation to face the onslaught on our sovereignty.

Where else on earth,other than Modi’s India, would a judge write 175 page judgement to prevent a voter to access educational qualification of its ministers. It would seem that education of ministers are not of public interest but only a matter merely of ‘interest to the public’.

BJP chief in Kerala warns Kerala and Tamilnadu CMs from attending global meet of Sabarimala devotees being organised by Dewasom Board. It’s clear: Battle is between the humanist, pluralist and tolerant interpretation of Hinduism by Kerala renaissance Gurus and Hindutva of BJP.

Israel’s genocide in Gaza is comparable only to Hitlers holocaust. It is the zionist final solution to demand for Palestinian state. Main weapon is not gas chamber,worse, slow death by starvation. And madman Trump demands Nobel prize for peace of Gaza graveyard..

BJP leader Gopalakrishnan’s boasts that BJP will not hesitate to bring voters even from J&K and settle them in any constituency to be enrolled in voters list. It is an open admission of how BJP captured Thrissur by enrolling voters en masse from outside without domicile status.

Essence of parliamentary democracy the executive enjoying majority in elected legislature. Governor is only an ornamental head functioning as per the advice of this executive, except in discretionary matters specifically provided.Hopefully SC will uphold this cardinal principle.

GoI should not bend to US pressure to end Russian oil import.But the benefits of cheaper oil should be passed on to the people.While the oil companies and GoI (taxes) profited $ 7-30 per barrel the retail petrol prices did not decline even a bit from around ₹ 95 per litre.

One by one BJP is dismantling the basic structure of our democracy. EC is compromised and an accomplice in Vote Scam. Now BJP wants to have the right to depose any opposition state government minister. All it has got to do is get them booked by ED and keep in custody for 30days.

How does machine readable voters list infringe privacy?What additional information does it reveal? None.But it facilitates transparency by enabling systematic analysis of info already available to public. What is EC afraid of? EC has become the prime manufacturer of fake votes.

The so called simplification of GST rates announced by Modi will be devastating for state revenues.The GST rates that have already been rendered below revenue neutral rate,by 2018 pre election simplification, will now shrink further. States must be compensated for the loss.

In the Independence Day address Prime Minister Modi chose to praise the RSS role in the National movement. How can Union Minister Suresh Gopi be left behind? See his poster of Independence Day where Gandhi assasination accused Sarvarker receives higher stature than Gandhiji.

Modi and Trump are forced to differ on tariffs.But they stand together on rigging elections. Trump gets a red nose in California election affair and Modi attempt to rig the Bihar elections paused by the SC. Both have many things in common,most important, don’t respect democracy.

In 2024 even a postal card addressed to the voter was sufficient evidence for domicile. Now not even Aadhar is acceptable. Then BJP wanted to add fake voters and now they want to delete genuine voters. Objective is same- steal elections. Modi prime ministership has no legitimacy.

Was Suresh Gopi’s(BJP) win in Thrissur LS seat yet another vote scam? This charge has become a hot topic of debate in Kerala. Average increase in number of voters per constituency in Kerala between 2019 and 2024 was only 80,000 while in Thrissur it rose by nearly 1.5 lakh votes.
