Nuclear scientist and communist ideologue M P Parameswaran dies

There was a very clever man named Dr M P Parameswaran who studied nuclear energy and worked at a big research centre called BARC.

He was born in a small village in Kerala, India, in 1935, and went to Russia to learn about nuclear engineering.

Later, he left his scientist job to teach science to ordinary people.

He helped start groups that spread science knowledge and reading across the country.

He also had big ideas about how the world should be run, which he called the 'fourth world'.

These ideas mixed caring for nature, people's rights, and everyone having a say in decisions.

Some leaders in his political party did not agree with his ideas, so he had to leave the party.

He won many awards, including one from the Kerala government in 2022.

He died at his home in Thrissur, and many people remember his work.
