NSS and its Customs

NSS and Extravagant MarriagesThe statement made by NSS that extravagant marriages should be stopped by the community is praiseworthy and highly appreciable. But it should be remebered that it was the NSS who carved rules and regulations for conducting marriages and funeral rites resulting in the wastage of money which no other caste entertain. For a marriage NSS has made it mandatory through each and every Karayogam segments that luxury coach buses must be arranged for taking the guests of bride and bridegroom to the marriage venue. For conducting a funeral rite NSS charges a contribution from the community members of the deceased. The bride's family is taking care of all the the expenses of the marriage including the grand feast. The family of the bride is supposed to meet the expenses of the bridegrooms family in the form of grocery and clothing for a period of oneyear immediately after the marriage. The reception handing over of bangle to mother in law, use of more than three sarees etc forms the part of extravaganza. Why to say more the expenses for the first delivery is exclusively reserved for the brides family. NSS should try to revoke these all rules urgently to put an end to extravagant marriages thereby inducing socialism in the community. Otherwise steps must be initated to share the expenditure mutually by the families. But unfortunately till now no NSS leader has set an example for conducting simple marriages to help the financially weaker sections in the community.

Murali and his destruction

Muralis entry is emerging as a news nowadays. K Muraleedharan was enjoying all sort of power, freedom and fame in the party. Let us not forget his activities in the past. When I group fielded kodothu Govindan Nair as a Rajyasabha candidate, he as KPCC preseident stood with the official faction and urged the other UDF leaders to vote for the rebel. He initiated the same action in Loksabha byeelection for defeating M A John. But in the second bye-election at thiruvalla where UDF's Elizabeth Mamman won over Varghese george of Janathadal, it was he who commented that it was due to the grabbing of BJP votes. Think of the state of affairs of the pure humble congress workers across the state at that time when their own PCC president remarked that it was due to the share of BJP.

When LDF bid farewell to Murali after Thiruvananthapuram bye-election by blocking his entry ito LDF, it was UDF who fielded him as a candidate. UDF lost his bastions like Vadakanchery and Koduvally only due to Murali.

Earlier ' I' group contested in 98 assembly segments and 7 parliament segments. Now it has changed into a situation that no leader nominee gets a ticket. Who is responsible???. Who was benefited from these activities of Murali. Noone but congress gained and rejuvenated a lot. A dirty fish will continue to spoil the whole water unless and until it wishes to cleanse its image. He can become a minister or chiefminister, No one will oppose it...since he is KannothuKarunakarn Muraleedharan.

Vellapally speaking with NO SENSE

Vellappali must realize the facts.

This is with reference to the statement of Shri. Vellappali Nadesan, S.N.D.P yogam Gen: Secretary that the forward communities including Nairs who are having only 22% of the state population have occupied 58.73% of the total in Govt: service and that the Ezhavas are still in backwardness.It has elapsed more than 50 years since the communal reservation had been introduced in Kerala.No census based on caste has been taken yet.Reservation for backward classes has been introduced in other states only after the implementation of the Mandal Commission Report.Out of the 50% communal reservation in Kerala,major communities like Ezhavas and Muslims enjoy exclusive reservation in the state .

Half of the reservation is being enjoyed by Ezhavas and Muslims.They enjoy 13% and 12% respectively.Vellappali may understand that this is beyond what they enjoy in merit quota. Besides,out of the 10% vacancies setapart for SC,ST categories, half of the same goes to Ezhavas in the absence of qualified hands among them.How can vellappali opin that 58.73% of the vaccancies are occupied by forward communities in a state where 50% communal reservation was implemented 50 years ago?

Good leaders normally deliver statements only after studying and analyzing the facts in a micro-scientific manner.Vellappali should have done that before the controversial statement.Everyone is fully aware that the Ezhavas are not at all backward in kerala now.To withstand the ongoing benefits it is quite natural that leaders like Vellappali speak pro on that even if it is not justifiable inorder to hang in communal organization.
