THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: In an instance that reverberated within the corridors of the Kerala Legislative Assembly, a resolution found unanimous approval on Wednesday, August 9. This resolute motion entreated the Central government to officiate a renaming of the state, transmuting it from the familiar 'Kerala' to the evocative 'Keralam.' Notably, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, the architect behind this pivotal proposal, enunciated that within the tapestry of our native Malayalam tongue, the state resonates as 'Keralam,' while beyond its borders, it assumes the guise of 'Kerala.'
"The collective voice of this esteemed Assembly beseeches the Central Government to embark upon expeditious measures, invoking the potency of Article 3 within the hallowed precincts of the Constitution. This shall culminate in a resplendent metamorphosis, heralding 'Keralam' across the manifold languages encapsulated within the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution," affirmed the chief minister, his words suffused with conviction.
A compelling narrative unfolds as the upcoming days usher in the celebratory extravaganza 'Keraleeyam 2023.' Scheduled to grace the calendar from the hallowed inception of November, this gala affair assumes the role of an unequivocal endorsement, projecting the triumphant attainments of the state onto the global stage.
Merely a day before, a momentous juncture bore witness to the Kerala Legislative Assembly, wherein unity transcended all else. A resolution of resolute opposition to the Central government's "unilateral and hasty" proposition to enforce the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) permeated the chambers. "Within this sanctified Hall of Legislature, an undercurrent of concern and dismay is palpable in response to the unilateral endeavor by the Central government to promulgate a Uniform Civil Code. The prevailing sentiment within this august gathering is that such impulsive actions hold the potential to unsettle the secular fabric enshrined within the Constitution," enunciated Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, his words resounding with conviction.
As unanimity heralds its clarion call, the Assembly channels its collective voice towards the Central Government. The resonance of this appeal reverberates, imploring a cessation of precipitous actions, until a consensus is meticulously woven through deliberations with the diverse tapestry of religious groups that grace our society.
