In 1995, Kerala, a southwestern state of India, experienced significant socio-political and economic developments. As part of the vigorous liberalization policies adopted by the Indian government, Kerala witnessed growth in its IT sector, positioning itself as a burgeoning hub for information technology in the country. This year also marked increased attention to social issues, including initiatives toward improving education and health care, reflecting the state’s high literacy rates and progressive socio-economic indicators. The political landscape was shaped by the dominance of the Left Democratic Front, led by the Communist Party of India (Marxist), which focused on social welfare and development policies.
