Kerala is celebrating its 68th State-formation day on November 1, at a time when the State is on the cusp of a profound transformation into a knowledge society and an economy based on values of sustainability and inclusivity.
This transition is firmly rooted in the social, cultural and economic ethos that marked the evolution of a democratic, secular, and aspirational society, the Nava Keralam.
Where Kerala stands now is the result of relentless struggles spearheaded by pioneers of the reform movement to radically revamp society based on renaissance values of human dignity and social, economic, and gender justice.
