DEVILS IN GOD'S OWN COUNTRY

The news report really give pain to a good number of people who love this beautiful landscape exclusively provided to us by the Supreme One. At any cost we must stop this heinous act and punish the culprits as a model for others, if any left. The best punishment would be to keep them away from the public for a long period, say a minimum of 15 years. The Chief Minister, Tourism Minister and Finance Minister may look at this matter at the gravity it deserves. Kerala is now facing absolute financial problems. We are not looking for any means to bring in more revenue to the state exchequer. While the government is confined to the sources of revenue from taxes, sale of liquor and lottery primarily, manage to withstand the situation because of the income of around Rs 1.5 lakhs crores from our people from abroad. While Kerala has large scope of multiplying the income from tourism, no result oriented efforts are being made towards this end. If properly organised a good amount of unemployed people can deployed in this sector. Given below is the list of top countries in the world in tourist inflow in 2019 (in millions)

France 90.0
Spain 83.7
USA 79.3
China 65.7
Italy 64.5
Turkey 51.2
Mexico 45.0
Thailand 39.8
Germany 39.6
UK 39.4
India 10.9
Kerala 1.2

From the above it can be safely assessed what is the earnings made by our country as well as God's Own Country in comparison with other countries, some of those may be even with less resources. However, despite all such things the nature loving tourists from all over the world come here though in small numbers. Unfortunately our own devil's from this God's Own Country do their wicked acts to drive away these great guests. A clipping of a reputed news paper of Malayalam is appended above. I would also like to humbly request to the Christian priesthood to find more time to refine the Christian youth. (When you read the above news  clipping it could be understood why it is addressed to your good selves too.)
