Kerala is not the place to roll out the RSS agenda.
Look what happened in Assam where the NRC was rolled out. Poor people with no way to find their documents were affected the most. And among them, the majority were Hindus.

India belongs to Indians of all kinds. Efforts to undermine this fact will only take our country backwards and destroy our hard-fought freedom. We must not let that happen.

This very concept of police assault is a colonialist notion and it holds no significance in a modern, democratic society.

Our party is not like the Congress, where leaders are more important than the party and ethics. In our party, people and workers are more important than leaders.

The Left forces have a strong and growing presence in universities, youth organizations, and among trade unions and farmer organizations... This strength is bound to reflect in the parliamentary arena.
Kerala is called 'God's own country.' We need to make sure it is really so, for which we should ensure the entire state, including rivers and backwaters, are clean.
