In Politics, an organized minority is a political majority.- Jesse Jackson
These words are literally true in the recent politics in the state of Kerala.
The Church which has owned the majority of Educational institutions in the state declared war against the Government and the ruling party in the state (LDF) trough their prayar meeting. The Leaders of Churches who are preaching the society the importance of Love and Patience also starts threatening the elected government and the Laws passed in the Legislative Assembly through the democratic methods.
Church has been following method of putting and anti minority image to the people who are trying to explore the facts that the minorities are enjoying the undue benefit which the majority does not have. For example they have called the previous Chief Minister Mr.A.K.Antony as anti minority due to the comments as follows:-
"We should see the reality in Kerala. The minorities in Kerala are organised. Other communities in the State have a complaint that these organised (minority) communities are securing more benefits from the government using their organisational clout and that they are bargaining for more benefits. There is such an atmosphere of grievance in Kerala. At the same time, it was the minority communities that benefited more through the large-scale migration to the Gulf, the United States and Europe. This has created an economic imbalance in Kerala's towns and cities. There is no point in shutting your eyes to this reality.
"Simultaneously, one can see the attempts of various political forces to take advantage of this situation. The minority leaders in the State should be willing to see this reality. They should also show some restraint. My personal opinion is that no organisation should believe that it can make the government do anything using its organisational clout. As Chief Minister I have a responsibility to advise them. Call it soft or hard (Hindutva). I am not such a sensitive man.
Now they are against the present Governement
