34th State Conference
Dear friends,
Kerala Yukthivadi Sangham is a cultural movement that has made significant contributions to fostering progressive scientific temper in the public mind by waging ideological struggles against superstitions, evil practices, and social exploitation. The Sangham works by taking up the responsibility of equipping the general public to strengthen interventions to uphold constitutional values by fostering rational thought and scientific temper.
The rationalist movement was started by the Sahodara Sangham formed in 1917. The 34th State Conference of the Kerala Yukthivadi Sangham, which was officially formed in 1967 and registered under law in 1979, is being held in Kollam on January 9, 10, and 11, 2026. A 200-member organizing committee including organizations, individuals, people's representatives, and prominent citizens working in various fields has been formed and is working for the success of the conference.
We request the sincere help and cooperation of all well-wishers to make the conference a success.
