Why it matters
The government's shift toward high-tech sectors like AI and semiconductors signals a strategic push for economic modernization in the state.
Keralam Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan on Monday said attempts by vested interests to discredit the State government will be emphatically rejected. In its first 100 days, the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) government has made headway in delivering ‘governance with empathy,’ the Chief Minister said. He also outlined programmes aimed at positioning Keralam as a hub for digital technologies, semiconductors and artificial intelligence (AI).
The government completes 100 days on Tuesday (August 25). In a special article marking the milestone, Mr. Satheesan said the government will not succumb to pressure groups, but will try its best to resolve any problem. Neither the Chief Minister nor the Ministers were above criticism. Criticism will be faced with tolerance, and the government will not hesitate to make corrections if there is substance in it, he said.
