Kerala is run by a Communist Party and they're the most literate state in India. Plus communal harmony is also the best in Kerala.

Kerala has done decently well.
The current govt has aimed at eradicating extreme poverty from Kerala by the end of the next year.

It may not be according to Western standards, but it's still a very cool initiative.

There's also the Nava Kerala mission

Nava means New in Malayalam, the main language used in Kerala.
