Kammi, Conghi and Sanghi : these words are so deeply embedded in Kerala’s political parlance that they are used liberally in everything from tea-shop debates to the battleground of social media comments. Their meanings are simple. A ‘Kammi’ is a blind follower of communism, just as a ‘Conghi’ is a Congress loyalist. ‘Sanghi’ refers to a follower of Sangh Parivar politics.
