THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: O Rajagopal, BJP leader and lone party MLA revealed the reasons why the party is not growing fast in Kerala. Literacy is an important factor and Kerala has a literacy rate of 90%, he said.

‘Kerala is a different state. There are two-three different factors here. Kerala has a literacy rate of 90%. They think and communicate and these are the habits of the educated. That is also a problem,’ he said. ‘

The second specialty is that there are 55% Hindus and 45 per cent minorities in the state. Therefore, this difference will be there in all calculations. That is why Kerala cannot be compared with any other state. The situation here is different but we are growing slowly and steadily, he said in an interview with the Indian Express.
