Another day of Kerala Piravi has passed by.There were festivals conducted by the government and other NGO's to commemorate the formation of the state.
But if we look a bit more deeper into Kerala and analyse what is going on,is it only me that think that we are loosing the essence of our rich culture and tradition?
I would like to site a simple example to substantiate this point.The number of children learning Malayalam as a language in schools is reducing year after year.The beautiful poems written by Kunjan Nambiar and Kumaranasan are going to be found on the relics of the archaeological department.This is happening in Kerala when the Malayalees who have migrated to other parts of the world are searching frantically to find resources for teaching kids their mother tongue.The same thing has happened to the costumes of Kerala.Mallus think that they are substandard or demarks their "face value" if they wear Mundu or Lungi.
It has even come to the state that people in Kerala have a wild notion that without using at least 3-4 English words in their usual chat, may feel downgraded them selves from the others.
Please try to preserve this rich language from being extinct,up hold the good values of our culture,so that the future generations can also be proud of the culture in which their forefathers have been brought up in
