“All these forces have made Malayalis hard-hearted and lacking in love.”
“Malayali finds happiness in luxury. There is money, but everyday life does not go on as we want. The Malayali, innocent, victimized and helpless, does not have the capability to build up a new system,” Zacharia added. The political parties and caste, communal forces as also the media are responsible to bring about changes.
