In this post infused with sarcasm and satire, MC writes at the collective blog Save Kerala on the sorry state of affairs in Kerala. He writes on how the most literate state in India is ruined by politicians of various hues and color; a very emotional piece written in a humorous way.
Why Do We Need Kerala Airways?
Or will it be “Air Kerala”? It certainly cannot be “Kerala Air” since it will invoke a series of protests and hartals against corporate forces trying to plunder and take undue advantage of Kerala’s virginity and supposedly clean air, leading to lesser air for the people of Kerala, especially the “saadharana-karan” (common man of Kerala), who will then have to breathe in vacuum – just like it happened in Plachimada because of Coca-Cola, who allegedly drained of all the water there, while 30 other factories there did not affect the environment.

Yes, truly a nice read.
And someone has to save Kerala from these politicians.
