“Modern Kerala is a product of the selfless social service of great visionaries.”
“Kerala is not a resource-rich State. This is a big challenge. Only if you have resources, you will have sound industries.”
“Weakening the federal structure essentially hampers our unity in diversity, India's biggest strength.”
“Sangh Parivar criminals get protection in certain BJP-run states such as U.P. and Gujarat. Such protection is unavailable in Kerala. There is no special law for Sangha Parivar. All criminals are brought to book here.”
“Environment conservation without stagnating development is the objective of our government.”
“The Kerala Police is the best law and order force and investigation agency in the country.”
“Positioning one leader against another is not necessarily how our democracy functions. We do not directly elect the president or the prime minister. We choose parties based on their policies, and their efficacy depends on how well they implement their policies.”
“The propaganda that Kerala is a trouble-torn state is a matter of concern. Such a false propaganda will adversely impact its investment and development prospects.”
“Government officials should recognize that the files in front of them represent very important issues in the lives of people.”
“Sabarimala is a unique place of worship where members of all faiths are free to go. It may be true that RSS and its B team, Congress, may be trying to whip up caste sentiments.”
“Keralites don't think on communal lines.”
“The Left Front, being an egalitarian political force, has always supported removing untouchability and discrimination in society.”
“We know that police alone can't prevent violence. Support of political parties is imperative to maintain peace.”
“Encroachment upon the powers and rights of States also goes against the grain of the Constitution and federal principles.”
“Those who are talking about withdrawing funds and grants to the states should understand that the Centre gets revenue from the states. They should realize that states like Kerala, get only a fraction in return, for every rupee that it pays to the Centre.”
“People should not feel that they are not Indians because they don't understand Hindi.”
“It is not for me but for the people to rate the central government.”
“Kerala has been one of the most vocal voices of federalism, and it will remain so.”
“Congress started mixing politics with religion. BJP perfected it.”
“As far as the Congress and the BJP go, we should not forget that they have not even apologized for the genocides in 1984 and 2002, which the Indian society as a whole holds them responsible for.”
