KERALA ON THE VERGE OF ECONOMIC COLLAPSE



Democracy ranking of the top ten countries in 2023 places Norway on the top and Afghanistan and North Korea on the bottom. India ranks 108th in the Electoral Democracy Index of 2023 of V-dem Democracy Index report. India is placed below Tanzania, Bolivia, Mexico, Singapore and Nigeria. This whole thing shows a picture somewhat close to our democratic system prevailing in our country. The states are also more or less following the same.

One of the unique example is Kerala. In comparison Kerala is rated high in education, health, standard of living, NRI remittance per capita (Kerala has now been over taken by Maharashtra. Kerala's earning has dwindled from 19% to 10.2%) Kerala is now on a head down economic fall. Soon we shall be able to see the reflection in the following way.

Building construction may come down drastically and consequently the allied shops may also constrained to be closed. Sale of vehicles in the state may fall considerably. Vehicles on road may also come down. Jewellery shops too may have a shadow period.

The most dangerous that may happen could be that our education system may be totally collapsed.  Eligibility may not assure proper employment. No big industrial houses or business firms may show interest in the state.To make things worse crime rate may jump multifold. However it may make some happy that the liquor sales in the state may come down drastically.

The above assessment is made based on the economic decline of the state. Unless we do practical solution for the problems we face we can only shed tears. Try to find the cause of this state and look for ways and means to overcome this perilous situation.

DO WE NEED TRADE UNIONS ANY MORE?

Image
Finally the communist government have forced to impose curbs on the Trade Unions in the state to mitigate the unbearable actions taken by them. Trade Unions have come into being when employees were put on hardships by the employers. The time have been changed since then. Now it is our own government and our own laws. All safety, security and welfare measures are ensured for the employee of all types. No third party is now required to safeguard justice for employees. Appropriate forums are established for employees to register their complaints either singularly or jointly. Therefore, as far as employees are concerned, they do not need any assistance from Trade Unions today. Trade Unions are now functioning as power centres of political parties. If the government is willing to stand with the people, then they can ban all Trade Unions activities in the state/country. Trade Unions today make negative contributions to the economy of the state and the country as a whole. Infact t
