MALAYALAM-A UNIQUE LANGUAGE-in Government Service too now!


Malayalam is a beautiful&rich Language like Flowers&Nature. I name Malayalam unique because no oter language when spelt in English coud read across&reverse.But the for the rich heritage of excellent books written by many famous writers.Malayam is the vernacular language of the people of Kerala. The origin for almost all Indian Language is Sankrit&Malayalam is not an wxception. he original name of the land of Malayalam was Keralam.This trademark name was afforded to this land presumably because of rich presence of Coconut trees all over the land of malayalam speaking people."Keram" means coconutSo the original meaningful name was rightly derived from coconut.Coconut Tree is such a one that every part of the Tree is useful to human beings. So also the people of Kerala!!.Famous for their urge to work &do everything intelligently,efficiently&effectively. In every corner of the world one can find a Malayali.They are traditionally famous \for doing work even without rest. However ,this quality of people of Kerala is true only when they work outside Kerala. In Kerala there is a generally there is a tendency of becoming lazy.This is the basis for too much of political experts belong to Kerala.Every one out of ten would like to become a leader in politics if they live in Kerala Comng back to thye origin of Keralam,the present state of Kerala came into effect on 1st November 1956 when the Stated of India were devided based on Linguistic reorganisation of state Act. Keralam had an importance &reputation all over world sine 2nd Century because of the land being the biggest exporter of spices since a long time even before 2nd Century. uring&even after the rule of the Britishers English influeced the people .There was a time when people preferred sending their children to English Medium schools instead of Malayalam medium schools. When days progressed after the linguistic devision,people even feared sending their children to Malayalam medium schools because of the students unrest&agitations there This resulted in the popularity of English media schools. The influence of English also resulted in neglecting of the sweet language Malayalam. After the formation of Linguistic state almost all the other states like Tamil naadu,Maharashtra,Punjab,Andhra Pradesh &many more turned into Linguistic conscious states&even changed the media of using regional language in transacting the business of the state. B ut Kerala inspite of every Government ruled by turn initiated the need for using Malayalam as the official language.But neither they were successful nor they took real interest in converting the official language. But recently every one all of a sudden arose to preach the need for using Malayalam. The present Government even brought a new law into effect from this year to compulsarily recognise only those who are prominent in Malayalam for government jobs. This looks like a descision well justified especially when Malayalan is being projected as a prominent language in the world. Until now this recognition was being afforded to Telugu alone out of the South Indian Languages. Notwithstanding this decision,the Education sector particularly professional courses like Medicine&Engineering will have to be continuesd in English basically for the reason that to find equivalent terms for Medicine theory&Engineering is not a matter possible overnigt. It is a herculian Task to find the terms which is likely to take many years even if some organiszation undertakes the task. A day when an Alopathy Doctor prescribes medicines in malayalam like Ayurvedic Medicines&technical terms in ek=ngineering used by the students to study&to work is beyond expectation. But service matters need discussion on files &in day to day work of public relations shoud start in vernacular medium. People sending the kids to English medium also will have to be continued to avoid days of attending schoolminimised due to unrest among students. Apart from this ,there appears to have enough dicipline in English medium schools as compared to vernacular medium schools. It is time we should learn to behave in schools earnestly without avoiding schooldays and classes. The need of the day is convincing people to become aware of the dangers facing their children in school & to stop recurrence of the sort like Politics&agitations in Educational Institutions.
