Kerala is a land of many people's movements as per its history. Like waves washing its shores, these movements cleaned up the minds of the Keralites. Its history is filled with initiatives on Dalit struggles, struggles on women's rights and struggles for communal harmony. But I wonder, where we are proceeding to at this moment. The only women's movement I can find today is that of the Sanghis supported by NSS and Congress shouting loud that `we women do not want our rights'. With all his limitations, I support Pinarayi Vijayan's stand that women who wish to enter Sabarimala Temple will be given protection. But who is there to protect? The police? Where is the women's movement in Kerala? Where is the secular movement in Kerala? Your words are heard in social media and TV channels. But the ground is theirs. The numbers on the ground also count in a democracy. Politics of convenience has doomed all of us. This battle will determine the last straw of parliamentary communism in Indian history. Whether we like it or not.
