Excellent that he's meeting with coir exporters. Kerala's coir industry has been struggling lately. Hope this interaction brings some concrete policy support for our traditional industries.

Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute is truly a gem! Visited there last year for treatment - world-class facilities. Glad the Vice President is recognizing such institutions of excellence.

While I appreciate the visit, I wish he had included more public interactions. Common people rarely get to interact with such high officials. Maybe next time? 🤔
