Shashi Tharoor’s equation with Kerala BJP president Rajeev Chandrasekhar is a strained one. He also isn’t known for hurling personal barbs at his opponents, which BJP expects out of turncoats.
Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan made a real political statement when he watched Empuraan with his family, despite the film taking potshots at the Left and Vijayan’s cult of personality.
Even after the spate of anti-Hindi agitations of the 1960s and 1970s in neighbouring Tamil Nadu, Kerala was open to the prospect of Hindi becoming the ‘national’ language.
A supplement dedicated to the Invest Kerala Summit had to share space with a half-page ‘Study Abroad’ advertisement—a fair depiction of the predicament the state finds itself in.
At 68, Shashi Tharoor may not be too old to bide his time. But it seems unlikely that he would be able to contest for the Lok Sabha from Thiruvananthapuram anymore.
Kerala often looks up to Scandinavian countries as model welfare states but ignores the fact that, in countries like Norway and Sweden, wildlife is treated as a renewable resource.
CPI(M) councillor Kala Raju’s humiliation can’t be seen as an isolated case. The party promotes aggression and violence from the grassroots level, starting with university campuses in Kerala.
The Jamaat-e-Islami and other outfits that campaign against the stoking of Islamophobia in Kerala must first look within before conveniently laying the blame on others.
In the first eight months of the current fiscal year, New Delhi’s net tax intake didn’t even hit the halfway mark of what it expects to collect by March 31.

UK, EFTA already in the bag and EU on the way, many members of RCEP except China signed up, and even restrictions on China being lifted, India has changed its mind on trade.
Such a wildly irresponsible take. Vast tracts of forests get destroyed everyday. Wildlife get beated, poisoned, brutalised all over the country. And here we have an article which is whining about why humans can’t have more resources. How greedy are we.
This article is so ridiculous! The global wildlife population has reduced by 73% in the past 50 years. Most states in India are doing terribly but if a state is not then instead of appreciating good governance, this article takes a ridiculous positioning to criticise those efforts. There is hardly any wildlife left on this planet. The balance would be to restore more wildlife, not cull it. Several reasonable steps can be taken to avoid human animal conflict and the state can work on those with actual experts. I am appalled that The Print printed this article which takes an extremely myopic view. The author is clearly inspired by the American perspective on conservation which essentially is only about luxurious lives for humans at the cost of other species.
Absolutely both Centre and State government needs to understand that humans are more valuable than animal life. But it looks like animals have been voting these parties to power to further their causes.
