BYKeralam. Forget what you’ve read or seen; let’s talk about the actual story of Kerala—a tale of progress, harmony, and resilience that deserves its own silver screen debut.
From the revolutionary social reforms of Sree Narayana Guru in 1888 to the pioneering Temple Entry Proclamation of 1936, Kerala has long been the heartbeat of communal harmony and equality in India.
Why Kerala is a Global Model:
Literacy & Education: While India’s average literacy was 18% at Independence, Kerala was already at 47%. Today, it stands at a staggering 96.2%.
Health & Life Expectancy: Travancore made vaccinations mandatory back in 1879! Today, Kerala boasts the highest life expectancy (78%) and the lowest infant mortality rates in the country.
Human Development: With an HDI of 0.784, Kerala is at par with many first-world nations and countries like Brazil and Mexico.
Global Recognition: Declared the world’s first “Baby Friendly State” by UNICEF and WHO, and home to Kudumbashree, one of the world’s largest women empowerment groups.
Economic Backbone: Our NRIs contribute roughly 2 lakh crore rupees annually, making up 20% of India’s total foreign inward remittances.
Whether it’s battling COVID-19, Nipah, or recovering from devastating floods and disasters, Kerala stands as one. No matter the religion or caste, we celebrate together and fight together. 🤝❤️
This is the model state for human development. This is the model state for harmony. This is my Kerala.
Who’s ready to make this movie?
