Rahul Gandhi to visit Kerala on January 19: State Congress chief Sunny Joseph

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will visit Kerala on January 19 to address a major party event in Kochi celebrating its local body election performance.

"We are hopeful that he will give us a more enthusiastic approach towards the Assembly elections. - Sunny Joseph"

Thiruvananthapuram, January 14

Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee President Sunny Joseph on Wednesday said that senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will visit Kerala on January 19, during which the party will hold a major programme in Kochi to mark its performance in the recent local body elections.

Speaking to ANI, Sunny Joseph said the event would bring together all elected representatives and candidates who contested the local body polls.

"Rahul Gandhi will be visiting Kerala on the 19th. We will be celebrating our mass victory in the local body elections. All the elected members and the candidates who contested will assemble in Kochi. Rahul Gandhi will address them. We are hopeful that he will give us a more enthusiastic approach towards the Assembly elections," he said.

On Tuesday, Rahul Gandhi visited Gudalur in Tamil Nadu to address the gathering of students and teachers at the Golden Jubilee Celebrations of the St. Thomas English High School.

He asked schools to turn information in the age of artificial intelligence into knowledge and wisdom.

He said, "We hear about the IT revolution, AI and data every day, and we hear that this is the information age where information is freely available and accessible. But the job of a school like this is to create people who are able to look at information, turn that information into knowledge and even more importantly, behave with wisdom."

Meanwhile, on the Kerala High Court's decision to order a probe into the alleged sale of 'Adiya Sishtam Ghee' at Sabarimala, Sunny Joseph welcomed the decision and stated that the court's intervention was necessary to bring several such incidents to light.

"That is quite welcome. Without the High Court's intervention, many incidents that have taken place would not have been made public. High Court's intervention is welcome," he said.

While I welcome any leader's visit, I wish there was more focus on concrete policy discussions rather than just victory celebrations. The talk about AI in schools in TN was good, but what about Kerala's specific issues like unemployment?

The High Court's intervention on the Sabarimala ghee issue is very important. Pilgrims' faith should not be exploited for commercial gains. Sunny Joseph is right to welcome this probe. Jai Hind.

His point about turning information into knowledge and wisdom is so relevant for our education system today. We need more such thoughtful discussions from our leaders, beyond just politics. 🙏

As a teacher, I really appreciated his speech in Tamil Nadu about AI and education. That's the kind of forward-thinking we need. Hope he touches on similar themes for Kerala's youth as well.

We welcome thoughtful discussions from our readers. Please keep comments respectful and on-topic.
