Malayalees are united wherever they go. People from other parts of india should learn lesson from Keralites who live unitedly and peacefully without harming any one. they respect each other's festivals and never harm others. there is no issue of Beef there as most of the keralites including Hindus / Muslims and christians consume beef. Some politicians are trying their best to seed hatred among them, however they will never succeed in it. Long live keralites unity.
