The great Term "God's own country replaced by "Criminals Own country"

Kerala  the beautiful state of India towards the southern most end was until now known as "God's Own

Country"is likely to earn a new name  "Criminal's Own Country " if the the prevailing alarming statistics of 

criminal records is taken  as a yardstick to assess.The most part of the criminl activities are reported from

Kochi(Cochin).In Indiamout of every lakh of people 187.1 people are with criminal activities as in the year

2010 whereas the average rate of criminal activities in Kochi during the same period was 1879.8

In 2009-2010 there was an alarming increase of rate of criminal activities which was 193 percent more.

The other stateMadhyapradesh which is in the second place was much behind Kerala .

In the most populated &the biggest State Uttar Pradesh just recorded as low as 87.5 people out of one

lakh people.

In regard to Unrest,Agitations&riot like bandhs &other activities too Kerala was much in front as compared

to other states.The unrest /Agitation rate of Kerala was 26.The national average rate prevailed at the same 

period was just6.4. However the unrest cases are mostly recorded at Bihar which was 13percent.Out of the

2,41,986 cases reported ,11,756 cases belonged to Kerala.

The criminal activities against women was also looked like the pride of Kerala as compared to other States.

The rate in Kera was 27 where as just behind& very close to Kerala was DELHI.This kind of crime was

less reported from GOA.Perhaps,people there have no time for such things as they are advantageously engaged in more desirable activities though the influence of alcaholic drinks prevail there also.But they do not spend in Crores&crores on it as is being done in Kerala.There is hearsay(not confirmed report}that the

basic reason was the flow of Gulfmoney to Kerala

The information available indicates that more cases of criminal activities are being reported from Kerala

because of  the trust in the Justice,Law&Order systems existing in Kerala.

In a nutshell,if this kind of situation cintinues how long we could call with pride KERALA "God's Own Country"?
