           Kerala’s eradication of extreme poverty is due to “Communism with Kerala Characteristics,” rather than any so-called “Left Alternative.” The “Left Alternative” has been a FAILURE, and the examples of West Bengal and Tripura stand before us as evidence of it. 
           Kerala's eradication of extreme poverty cannot be compared to any country. We achieved it despite being part of a Union that is largely poor, a Union govt that imposes financial obstacles & an opposition that wants to see us falter. This truly shows what the left alternative is.

             Your claim that Pinarayi Vijayan will NOT be able to fulfill his promises to the people of Kerala due to debt is UNFOUNDED. The fact is that the LDF government has consistently REDUCED the total outstanding liabilities as a percentage of GSDP from FY 2020–21 to FY 2024–25.👇🏻 
           Rs 6,00,000,0000000 in debt - how will @PinarayiVijayan fulfill any of his promises? So CM Pinarayi finally woke up yesterday - 4 months before elections 🚨 After 9 and half years in govt, he suddenly remembers the poor, announcing "new" schemes - all promised in 2021 CPM

             CM Pinarayi Vijayan is 100% CORRECT when he says that the Union Government hasn’t given the funds. The 15th FC recommendations have further reduced Kerala’s share in Union taxes, and you should be demanding an equitable share for the state instead of supporting this injustice.👇🏻

              @7x7_RMCF @Zoomerjeet +99% waiters and bartenders in kerala are North Indians + they do more crimes per capita here too, especially sexual abuse @VarierAravind do you have any data regarding this?

             Here are the calculations👇🏻 Average expenditure under the National Health Mission (NHM) per ASHA worker in FY 2023–24 (in ₹) Himachal Pradesh = (₹ 7,684.08 Lakh ÷ 8,252) = ₹ 0.93118 Lakh OR ₹ 93,117 Kerala = (₹ 68,19.57 Lakh÷26,448 = ₹ 0.25785 Lakh OR ₹ 25,785 
          
              @VarierAravind So you have the right data right then just tell how much does one of the lowest paying state kerala is paying asha workers per month what's the minimum pay and what's the maximum pay with all the possible incentives?? And what's that for your highest Himachal Pradesh

             I am NOT misrepresenting the data The data that you shared represents the incentives offered by the State Governments and NOT the actual amount paid to each ASHA worker every month The only way to find the actual amount is by calculating the average expenditure per ASHA worker 
          
              @VarierAravind I used to respect you for your takes against sanghis, defending Kerala. But now your propaganda against the State government is very clear. Have some shame before blatantly misrepresenting facts.

             I understand the concept. You think it is a lie because you haven’t yet understood the intricacies involved in it. The actual amount can be calculated only by using the average value per ASHA worker. I am ready to explain it to you in a Twitter Space discussion.

           Starting to wonder if Varier is just pushing a BJP narrative. These “stats” are fabricated to mislead.

             Kerala is NOT the highest-paying state in India for ASHA workers. FACT: Even after increasing their honorarium by ₹1,000, Kerala remains one of the LOWEST-paying states in India for ASHA workers.👇🏻 
           LDF government now increases the honorarium for ASHA & Anganwadi workers by ₹1,000, making Kerala the HIGHEST paying state in India for these frontline heroes.🔥🚩 #LeftAlternative

             Why are Malayali communists like you so arrogant? To be honest, people might rethink their decision to vote for the LDF after witnessing the arrogance of its online supporters LET THAT SINK IN👇🏻 Around 50% of Malayali students now prefer to go to Karnataka for higher education 
           Fun fact: Karnataka may be the “Silicon Valley of India,” but only 10.68% of its govt schools have internet. Kerala, which many love to label “slow and boring,” has 99% govt school connectivity. Good governance matters. not revenue alone.

           You have LDF (led by CPM), UDF (led by Congress) and BJP fighting in the elections in Kerala. Whom would you vote for? Frankly, whom would u vote for?
