KSRTC has introducted the low cost Sarige bus service from Madikeri to Malappuram in Kerala.
Vivek Poovaiah of the Movement for the Welfare of Community and Environment (MOWCE) and NGO which closely works with KSRTC was quoted in The Hindu stating ” The bus service is going to help business travelers and plantation workers.”
What Manjunath is talking is highly discriminative, better talk after knowing facts. we are living here in malappuram together n peacefully irrespective of cast and religion. Please dont make problems.

There are people from Malapuram, who has migrated & settled in Coorg, Niligiri areas. This bus service will be a blessing to those people.
Excuse me Manjunath; who told you that malapuram is a poverty ridden district ?
If you don’t know the facts, please don’t post these rubbish in social sites like this.
“Kerala’s economy depends on emigrants working in foreign countries (mainly in the Persian Gulf countries such as United Arab Emirates or Saudi Arabia) and remittances annually contribute more than a fifth of GSDP.” Majority of these emigrants are from Malapuram.
I am baffled. How is going to help businessmen and plantation workers? Malappuram is one of the most (if not the most) populous district in Kerala. Plus its a poverty ridden & muslim majority district. Who gave this idea to Vivek? The Mapilla Lobby ? Expect more mapilla’s in Kodagu very soon.
