Nov 1: I am delighted to be here with you all at this function on the Foundation Day of Kerala and would like to congratulate the State and the people on the impressive achievements made since 1956. I am deeply touched by the warmth accorded to me at this civic reception and take this opportunity to convey my good wishes for the prosperity and progress of all the people of Kerala. I am also glad that on this occasion, imaginative programmes relating to Clean Kerala Mission, Total Physical Fitness and Scholarships for Higher Education are being launched.

In the last five decades, Kerala has progressed a great deal and today, it proudly stands at the forefront for its achievements in human development particularly in the fields of education, health and empowerment of women. The people of Kerala enjoy a quality of life that compares favourably with many developed countries in the world. This remarkable advancement has been possible due to the combined efforts of the Government, various political and social organizations and, more importantly because of the hard work, the spirit of openness and enterprise of the people of Kerala. Social development has contributed to the emergence of a progressive society. Achievements in the social sectors should be matched by sustainable economic growth and enhanced productivity. Kerala has great potential. It should harness its resources and focus on development of major sunrise industries like tourism, knowledge industry, health, exports etc.

Kerala is a land of exceptional natural beauty and is one of India’s top tourist destinations. Its tropical forests, its fascinating backwaters, misty hill stations, its many rivers, its beautiful lakes and its characteristic coconut trees have created “God’s own country”. The growth of tourism in Kerala is commendable and its further development could help in generating additional revenues and employment. Apart from good and reliable infrastructure, tourism hinges on a clean and green environment. Hence efforts should be to keep the environment unpolluted, the waters pristine and the air clean by adopting eco-friendly practices. An environment friendly Kerala would ensure that tourists continue to look forward to their travel to Kerala.

India is recognised as one of the world’s largest repositories of medicinal herbs and herbal drugs. Yet the country accounts for a meagre 2 per cent of the world’s organised herbal drugs market, which is reckoned to be as much as $ 63 billion and growing annually by 7 per cent. The country’s share in the global exports of herbal medicines is also low, at around 10 per cent, and takes place largely in the form of herbs or their extracts and not as value-added products. As a result, the herbal drugs sector, including the ‘nutraceutical’ sector, remains a poor cousin of the thriving pharmaceutical industry. This state of affairs prevails notwithstanding the documentation of nearly one lakh plant-based medicinal formulations in the country’s ‘traditional knowledge digital library’, created to provide intellectual property protection to this valuable wealth. It is evident that most of the formulations developed under the ancient medicinal systems of Ayurveda, Siddha and Unani, and described in classical texts, remain outside the purview of the organised drug manufacturing sector.
