Anti-corruption Forum EXCEL KERALA is formed by DGP Jacob Thomas

Kerala's DGP ranked officer Dr. Jacob Thomas IPS today officially announced the formation of a new Organization named Excel Kerala which is mainly aimed at reaching good governance, development and zero corruption in Kerala state. It also aims to achieve human rights, gender equality, peace and non-violence etc.

Many prominent personalities of Kerala from different walks of life, have also joined the movement which is said to be non-political. The names of the founding members of the organization are listed in the website of Excel-Kerala. They include, film directors Sathyan Anthicad and Lal Jose, actor Sreenivasan, popular RTI activist Adv D B Binu, noted writers Zacharia and Balachandran Chullikkadu, Santhosh George Kulangara of Sancharam fame, Journalist Arun Kumar, social worker sreedhanya Rishikesh, Prof M N Karassery and many others.

The excel Kerala web portal has an online open forum where people can register and join the discussions and exchange information. The posts of the affected are debated and follow-up actions are to be taken.

The author of this new initiative Dr Jacob Thomas was voted as the 'News Maker of 2015' by Kerala's leading news media and is a peck in the eyes of the UDF government by Team Oomman Chandy facing serious corruption allegations. As a result of his repeated disobedience to the government orders, he was transferred to different positions very often. There is also an allegation against him of receiving huge salary for his work rendered to some private institutions being in Government service..!!

Corruption (bribery) which has become an enormous giant is growing day-by day in India and it is an Himalayan task to eliminate it. However people are putting all their hopes on any person or effort who strives to control it and are very glad to extend every support. May such endeavours become successful and achieve the goals.
