THE SPLINTER PARTIES FRONT (SATIRE)

The UDF and the LDF in Kerala don't see eye to eye except in one thing :both of them don't want the splinter parties anymore. They regard the splinter parties as a splinter in the flesh, causing irritation and pain.

Kerala is famous for its world -class magicians like Muthukad, Samraj etc. Now our political magicians are busy behind the scenes preparing for the greatest show in five years.The show has two parts. First, how to accommodate all the alliance partners in the 140 Assembly constituencies. Secondly, how to pull out a victory.

The aspirants for seats are so many that even the Parliament cannot fit them. The people are waiting to see how our magicians squeeze the aspirants into the 140 seats.

So the splinter parties were not even allowed to go near the gates of the halls where the LDF and the UDF were busy allocating the seats. So the disgruntled splinter parties had no option but to form their own alliance to contest the elections.

For this purpose, they organized a convention of the splinter parties at Kottayam on 1 March 2016. There was a steady flow of the members of the homeless, road -based, booted out, rejected, defunct, sidelined, marginalized, unwanted parties to the convention. Many veterans of the splinter movement,like PC GEORGE, Balakrishna Pillai, Ganesh Kumar, TS John, PC Thomas etc took part.The splinter ideology is based on not adhering to any ideology or alliance, but as the elections were at the door step, there was no option but to compromise. Thus the DSF (Democratic Splinter Front)
 was born.The convention decided to contest all the 140 seats under the banner of the DSF.

Then the discussions focused on the selection of an election symbol for the DSF. Already, there's an acute shortage of symbols in the country due to the proliferation of political parties. Even the rat 🐀 is a coveted symbol .The following 🔣 were suggested for The DSF .1.Coffin 2.Grave 3.Dumping site 4 Chameleon 5 Dustbin  6 👢 boots (booted out ) 7 road 8 burning log (pukanja kolli purathu )

As the Splinter movement is known for disagreements ,dissent ,and splits ,the discussions became acrimonious and pandemonium broke out .Fights broke out as in the Kerala Assembly .One leader's left ear was bitten off in the chaos .There were broken ribs and red noses .Finally a consensus was reached by secret ballot ❌ .The dustbin was selected as the DSF's election symbol .

വൈഗ കൊലക്കേസ് (Viewpoint)

 കേരളത്തിൽ ഹാപ്പി ആയിരിക്കാൻ സാധിക്കുമോ? Yes ഉം No യും പറയാൻ സാധിക്കും. നമ്മുടെ പേഴ്‌സണൽ ചുറ്റുപാടുകൾ അനുകൂലവും ഹാപ്പിയും ആയിരിക്കാം. പക്ഷേ രാജ്യത്തു നടക്കുന്ന സംഭവങ്ങൾ വീക്ഷിക്കുമ്പോൾ മനസാക്ഷിയും മനുഷ്യത്വവും ഉള്ള ആളുകൾക്ക് unhappy ആകാനെ കഴിയൂ. പുതിയ സിനിമകൾ വരുന്നു, കുറേ കഴിഞ്ഞ് നമ്മൾ അവയെ മറക്കുന്നു. ഇതുപോലെയാണ് കൊലക്കേസുകളും. ഉത്തര എന്ന യുവതിയെ ഭർത്താവ് പാമ്പിനെ ഉപയോഗിച്ച് കടിപ്പിച്ചു കൊന്നത് രണ്ട് വർഷം മുൻപാണ്. കൂടത്തായിയും വാർത്തകളിൽ നിറഞ്ഞു നിന്നു.പുതിയ കേസുകൾ വന്നപ്പോൾ അവ പഴയ സിനിമകൾ പോലെ ആയി. ഇപ്പോഴിതാ വൈഗ കൊലക്കേസ് നാടിനെ ഞെട്ടിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു. ക്രിമിനോളജി വീട്ടിലിരുന്ന് പരസഹായം കൂടാതെ  പഠിക്കാവുന്ന ഒരു വിഷയമാണ്. കേരളത്തിലെ കേസുകൾ പഠിച്ചാൽ മതി. ഒരു കൊലയാളി ഒരേ സമയം ഒരു മണ്ടനും ബുദ്ധിമാനും ആണ്. കൊല ഭംഗിയായി ചെയ്യുന്നതിനും തെളിവ് നശിപ്പിക്കുന്നതിനും അയാൾ ബുദ്ധിമാനാണ്. സ്വന്തം കുട്ടിയെ കൊന്ന സനു മോഹൻ ആ കൊലയിൽ ബുദ്ധി പ്രയോഗിച്ചു. പിടിക്കപ്പെടാതെ 27 ദിവസം പല സംസ്ഥാനങളിൽ കറങ്ങി. മൊബൈലും ATM കാർഡും ഉപയോഗിച്ചില്ല. എന്നാൽ കൊല്ലൂരിൽ ഒരു ഹോട്ടലിൽ  സ്വന്തം ആധാർ കൊടുത്തു. അത്...

A POEM FOR BAKOLOBENG STUDENTS

            A  poem   for  Bakolobeng    students  April   25th   was  a memorable   day  at  Bakolobeng   Secondary   School for   many   reasons. It  was the  last working  day of the  month  due to  a  long   weekend and  extended  special  school  holidays. For  me and  for Mrs. Visser, the  Principal, it was  our  last day  in our  careers. By  a  lucky coincidence, it was  my birthday. I   heard  that  the teachers, students  and the School  Governing  Body members  had  planned  a  special assembly  to  honour us. I thought  that the assembly  was  after  lessons, but  they  wanted to ...

VAGAMON

Vagamon doesn't need any introduction. It's known as a place of unique biodiversity, a favourite location for film shooting, and a popular destination for day visitors. We set out for a day trip to Vagamon on Sunday, 8 May,from Kottayam. The roads in Kottayam District are generally of international standards,particularly the road from Pala to Erattupetta. On our way, we stopped at Bharanganam to attend Holy Mass, and for breakfast in the Canteen. Initially, I was doubtful about the service there, because often, in such places where large number of people gather, the services may not be satisfactory. But I was proved wrong  by the good service and the quality of the food served there. Indeed Bharanganam is an exemplary pilgrim centre, with excellent roads, ample space for parking ,scenic beauty etc. Personally speaking, Kerala's beauty is felt when we move away from city centres, and climb uphill through winding roads,watching the hills and mountains. As the roads ar...
