    AITUC is for Nokku Coolie.

    We are always fighting for our rights. And, since we are so literate, we know our rights well. But, how many know their duties also? And, how many of them do their duties properly?

    We need to bring the things by Lorries and the union members have the right to unload the things. And, if we bring the things by Tipper, they can't unload it and hence they loss their job. So they are entitled to get the compensation for loss of job. And that is known as Nokku Coolie, as per Kanem Rajendran.

    He is right in that sense. We should fight for the rights and get the compensation.

    But, I have some doubts:

    Will you pay this Nokku Coolie to the postal agency while you send the message through email, as they are losing their job of delivering the letters?

    Will we pay this Nokku Cooile to the Coconut tree climbers, as we are paying scholarships, loans and awards for the best climbing machine inventor, as the climbers will lose their jobs?

    Will we pay this to the marriage brokers as we approach marriage bureaus and online resources, and bypass brokers?

    We have to appoint a coomission to study these things and to fix the rates of Nokku coolie as the rate for Tippers unloading.

    Nokku cooli is a barbaric system practiced in Kerala, the God's Own Country. This system opens a window into the mindset of trade union leadership in Kerala, irrespective of Right, Left, or Centre. Though Kerala is in the forefront of education, literacy, and political consciousness, our political leadership is still living in the dark ages. They fail to see the writing on the wall. Instead of trying to adapt to the new realities arising out of the rapid advancements in technology, what we are witnessing here is a reluctance to change. The policy here is to make money even if that means fleecing the common man. By taking such a stubborn, irrational attitude towards nokku cooli, the trade union leadership is denying common Keralite the fruits of modern technology.
    As for the poll, I am for the second option.

    Where there is a will there is a way.

    There is no justification of Nokku coolie. It should be banned by law. The money that comes without any work is not good. No where else, we can find such an element.

    NO & YES are two short words, which need a long thought..., most of the things we miss in life are due to saying NO too soon or YES too late. Have a great day.
