The state of Kerala lies on the Southern most part of the India having a population of 30 million and a geographical area of  38,000 Sq kms. Kerala could achieve the highest literacy rate among all Indian states and her health care system is comparable to any advanced country in the world. Thanks mainly to the contribution made by Private sector in the respective fields. The enterprising Keralites migrated to different parts of the globe and Kerala economy today thrives mainly on foreign remittances. But ever since the formation of the state in 1956 political power alternated in between the Socialist United Democratic Front (UDF) and the Marxist Left Democratic Front (LDF) and both of them were competing among themselves to be more  "progressive" by persuing statist policies. With the result about 4 million young men and women remain either unemployed or unemployable which creates quite an explosive situation. Productive sectors of the economy remain stagnent. There is a buergoining bureacracy and corruption has become all pervasive. There are about 200 loss making public sector undertakings which eat away, the scarce resources of the state. For the helpless citizens democracy comes to an end the moment he or she casts his or her vote at the end of every five year period.

It was in this background that some of us who felt very badly about the situation and who believe in classical liberal philosophy came out with the idea of forming a "Liberal Group" in the state of Kerala. Although we are a non-party group at the moment, we are quite sure that we will become a force to reckon with in the politics of Kerala in the very near future. Among other things, we believe in, 

1. Restoration of values or "Dharma" in society.

2. A limited Govt. and decentralisation of powers at all levels with an effective    participatroy  local govt. 

3. A free market economy regulated in public interest and considerations of equity and fair play.

4. Bringing up a new class of leaders from among students, youth, women,  agriculturists, small entrepreneurs, consumers, unemployed young men and women   who were left out during the last 50 years of socialist dispensation.  

5. Promoting poverty alleviation and self employment by voluntary action. 

6. Promoting worldwide the possibilites of IT, Tourism, Ayurvedha (an alternative source of medicine) for which Kerala is best suited.
