During the UDF government in Kerala, there were always complaints that school text books were not supplied in time. Sometimes, they were supplied almost at the end of the school year only.

The LDF Government with Com. Pinarayi Vijayan as Chief Minister has acted fast. Even before the school year starts in June, the books have been printed and is being supplied to the schools. Out of the 2.60crore books required, 1.80 crores have been printed and 1.60 crores despatched to the concerned schools. It has been assured by the education minister Com.C.Ravindranath that the balance number of books will be printed and supplied before the next school year starts.

Congratulations to the Government for the good work!

The people of Kerala have the experience that during the LDF government, the PSUs will improve and become profitable, while during the UDF rule they will become ineffective and loss making. During the last UDF rule, out of the total 46 PSUs, only 10 were profitable. When the last LDF left 18 PSUs were profitable.

Now the Kerala Government has stated that it will make all out efforts to strengthen the PSUs. The work has already started. There is no doubt that many of the PSUs will be improved and made financially viable during the present regime.

State PSUs will protected and strengthened – Kerala Chief Minister

During his speech at Kozhikode Tagore Centenary Hall on 12th June 2016 when he was given a grand reception, Com.Pinarayi Vijayan, Chief Minister, Kerala stated that the state PSUs will be protected and strengthened. This is a very welcome assurance.

During the UDF rule, almost all the state public sector units have been weakened and made loss making. It is to be remembered that all these PSUs were strong and profit making during the period of the LDF government. Once again these PSUs are going to be revived.

Both the UPA Government as well as the NDA government at the centre have been systematically selling, closing and disinvesting the central PSUs during the past twenty years or so. They have become the promoters of the private sector and the corporates. The present position of the ITI, HMT and other such famed PSUs are well known to all.

The difference of attitude between the NDA/UPA at Centre and the LDF in Kerala towards the PSUs is well understood by the workers. While appreciating the correct stand of the Kerala LDF government, the working class have to fight and defeat the anti-PSU policies of the NDA government at the centre.

Kerala Labour Minister Com. T.P.Ramakrishnan has stated that there is no declared or undeclared ban on recruitment in government services in Kerala. He stated that instructions have already been issued to find out the vacancies in each and every department and the same will be filled up. The UDF government had kept thousands of vacancies without filling up them denying employment to the eligible candidates.
The Labour Minister further stated that the LDF government is committed to generate about 25 lakhs new jobs in the state. As part of this, all the vacancies in the government will be filled up urgently.

LDF government is pro-labour unlike UDF government. Common people have understood the same.

As per the many exit polls, LDF will win with good majority. The Counting and declaration of results will be on 19th May.

The people are disgusted with the UDF government fully immersed in corruption and want a change for the better. LDF is the alternative.

The policies of LDF government led by  CPI(M) and  UDF Government led by the Congress in Kerala as far as PSUs are concerned is very clear to the people. While the election campaign is going on in Kerala, the differences in dealing of the PSUs by the two fronts are being discussed.

During the LDF government, all the state PSUs become profitable and improves their functioning with the full support of the government. But in UDF rule, the PSUs are strangulated and made loss-making. They are destroyed to help the private companies.

A look in to the profit and loss of the PSUs during LDF and UDF governments given below establishes the above truth. These statistics are published by the State Public Sector and Autonomous Bodies Officers Federation( SPATO).

UDF GOvt. (2001-2006)  – Average Loss Rs. 213.74 crore per year.

LDF Govt. (2006-2011)   – Average Profit Rs. 292.45 crore per year

UDF Govt. (2011-2016)  – Average Loss  Rs. 645.96 crore per year

LDF Government has to come to save the state PSUs.

 

Kerala Model – Great achievements by LDF

This is the election time for Kerala along with W.Bengal, T.Nadu, Assam and Puducherry. Kerala has a special tradition of electing CPI(M) led Left Democratic Front (LDF) and Congress led UDF alternatively. But it seems that this time it is going to be changed. The indications are there that the LDF may be elected again braking the tradition. Why?

The great achievements of the last five years of LDF rule itself is the main basis for the above presumption. Kerala is acknowledged as one of the best ruled state in the country. Let us see what are the achievements of the LDF?

Improvement of agriculture sector: Increased support price for paddy from Rs.7 to Rs.14 per kg resulting in increase of cultivation area by 60,000 acres and production by about 1.25 lakh tonnes. Production of eggs, vegetables, milk, fish and meat also increased.

LDF government increased budget allotments for traditional industries like coir, cashew, hand-loom, bamboos etc. which resulted in increased production and also better wages.

During UDF rule almost all state PSUs were in big losses. UDF government closed some of them and were proposing to close others to the benefit the private business, just like the Central Government. During the UDF rule out of 44 PSUs only 12 were profitable. The total loss in 2005-2006, last year of UDF, was Rs.69.64 crore. After 4 years of LDF rule 32 PSUs out of 37 ( some PSUs were merged together) became profitable. The total turn over of the PSUs increased to Rs. 2190.73 crore and the loss of Rs.69.64 crore during UDF period was changed to profit of Rs 239.75 crore in 2009-2010. In 2011-2012, Kerala will have the record of ‘no loss making PSU’.

In the previous 2 years period under the EMS Housing Project 8.5 lakh houses were provided to those having no house. It is proposed to provide more houses under this project.

SC/ST and minorities have been given top priority and special assistance in various ways. One acre land will be provided to landless tribal families. LDF has provided better social justice.

During UDF rule hundreds of farmers committed suicide due to debt and failure of crops. After LDF came in to power, special assistance were given to the farmers. debts were written off and the farmers suicide became a matter of the past.

IT parks have started which will give thousands of jobs to the unemployed.

Kerala is given award by the Central Government for Best Law and Order situation under the LDF rule.

Best literate state.

26 awards received in the tourism sector.

One of the best health system in the country under the LDF rule.

Many other achievements have been made during the LDF rule.

As such the LDF facing the coming elections on 13th April 2011 with confidence. I feel that the people of Kerala will change the alternate LDF -UDF rule and elect the LDF this time also for a better governance and benefits to the people.

Kerala – Election situation improves for LDF

While the state assembly election dates in Kerala are yet to be announced, the situation for Left Democratic Front (LDF) is improving day by day. Though the CPI(M) lost heavily in the Parliament elections, it has almost restored its strength to the earlier position. The state organisation is systematically working for a good victory.

Another factor is the difference between the alliances on the sharing of seats in the opposition camp, United Democratic Front (UDF). There exist differences amongst all partners as also within the Congress party itself. However, this may be sorted out in the last moment as usual.

The main issue is the image loss for the Congress, UDF and UPA at Central level. The image of the Prime Minister himself is in question in connection with the Supreme Court struck down appointment of CVC. The other scams including 2G, Adarsh, CWG etc. are all pointing to the highest in the Congress Party and those supporting it.

The jail sentence against former minister Balakrishna Pillai is another image loss for UDF in Kerala. Cases against other former minister are also surfacing.

The last five years LDF rule and implementation of people oriented programmes has increased the prestige and image of the Left Government, despite opposition charges to the contrary.

In such a situation, the LDF has the upper hand. There is every chance that LDF may win if it continues its work in an effective way with complete unity.
