Kerala Assembly Elections 2021 Special Podcast

-

 Greetings to all listeners and readers!!

It is election season in five Indian states. Compared to ordinary Indian politics, we can understand that these are the five states which are somewhat isolated from the politics of the rest of India as well as the place where regional parties are strong. 

Here we are focusing more on Kerala Politics for multiple reasons. The main reason is that I, myself is from Kerala. Also, this time we are seeing an interesting contest that is not only bipolar but also tripolar in many seats, and as usual Kerala politics is unique in multiple ways. 

Don’t know much about Kerala Politics, its parties and leaders? Read it as a prerequisite to improving your understanding.

About the Podcast 

Known for unique ways of politics, demographics, tourism, etc. Kerala has always stood ahead of other states. We declutter one of the most cluttered and competitive elections in the history of the state. 

With 14 districts and 140 constituencies, Kerala is seeing a close contest between the incumbent LDF and the opposition UDF. We have the nation ruling NDA trying to eat up the cake that was shared by a bipolar fight to a tripolar fight. Along with that, we have new political and apolitical forces challenging the forts built by political parties for years. The majority mark for ruling the state is 71 seats. The alliance that crosses that mark will get to rule the state for five years. 

If you are a person who doesn’t like to read those long elections-related articles, or even watch videos that require full attention, then we have made this podcast just for you so that you need not read anything much, or watch but you can just listen to it, while you are doing something else like driving, or even casually browsing social media. Also, another advantage of a podcast is that you listen to them from your favourite streaming platform or even cast it on your Android TV.

Summary of the podcast

Generally, these topics like these aren’t much available in the mainstream media, because these are believed unimportant. But, through my podcasts and blogs, I disprove this misconception that these cannot be understood by common people. We explain in simple terms regarding various subtopics under this vast topic in the form of conversational and Q&A style. 

We cover in detail the following topics-

  1. The uniqueness of Kerala politics
  2. What are their main issues that are being discussed in the election?
  3. Controversies
  4. Where do various parties stand?
  5. Role of new forces. 
  6. Interesting Seats to cover
  7. How to vote for this election? What should a voter keep in mind while going to the polling booth? (MOST IMPORTANT!!)

Podcasts started with a discussion on the factors which make Kerala politics unique. It was a personalised answer that panellists chose to put forward their ideas. This was followed by a heated discussion on the major issues on which battle is being laid out. What are the issues? It is a surprise to those who are going to listen! So don’t miss it. The episode also discussed in detail various controversies that were raked in the past term of the government. 

The role of new parties and interesting contests were also debated with the distinct points talked upon. At the end of the podcast, we have ensured that you will have maximum value in listening to it. We answer the most important question, How to vote? What should you keep in mind before voting? So, you cannot afford to miss this question at any cost. 

Coming to important points we can see in most cases that panellists are coming to a consensus on the majority of the topics and also in the arguments raised. There is no way you can miss it.

Greetings to all listeners!! Human Rights have been the hot topic of the previous decade. It will continue to be a hot topic as we go ahead. But the main reason Human Rights came into the mainstream discussion was Refugee Crisis. It is not a new concept, but found relevance in the last decade due to a series of events starting from the Syrian Civil War in 2011, then war against terror in Iraq, Libya, Yemen, parts of Africa etc. Although the debate of Refugee crisis grabbed global attention only after it reached Europe. The first massive refugee crisis was soon after World War, after the massive destruction it created throughout Europe. That was when the 1951 Refugee Convention came into effect, later there was the 1967 Geneva Protocol. Now, we have seen another refugee crisis in Europe were refugees from the Middle East, Afghanistan, Africa etc came to the doorstep of Europe knocking the doors of the EU. Today we are decoding the events leading to that, how Europe reacted, it's
