Katju does it again: urges India to learn from Malayalees
Synopsis
Justice Markandey Katju used his Onam greetings to praise Malayalees, once again. Keralites represent the real India, Katju said. This is not the first time that Katju is heaping praise on malayalees.
Justice Markandey Katju has once again heaped praise on Keralites and urged the whole country to learn from Malayalees.
"As I had said earlier, you (Malayalees) represent the real India, with all its diversity. The whole country must learn from you," Katju said in his Onam greetings.
In an earlier Facebook post, Katju had stated that Kerala represented 'a microcosm of India.' Trying to fathom what might be behind the quintessential 'Malayaleeness,' he said that "the essential quality of Kerala is its openness to external influence--Dravidians, Aryans, Romans, Arabs, British, Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Marxists, etc," he wrote in August.
"Keralites are hard working, modest, and intelligent. They are broad minded, liberal, cosmopolitan and secular in their views ( though no doubt there are a few exceptions )," Katju explained.
