Rajinikanth's remark strikes at the heart of Tamil Nadu's Dravidian politics. To say anything against Periyar is not just risky but perhaps politically suicidal too.
From calling for chemical castration of rapists to calling out an HC judge for 'targeting' her to 'overzealous trials', judge Kamini Lau has done it all.
Padukone’s act of solidarity for JNU students rattled BJP so much its leaders called for a boycott of her film Chhapaak while Smriti Irani turned personal.
Modi government's disinvestment decision is already facing stiff opposition from employees of BPCL, Container Corporation of India, and even the Swadeshi lobby.
MoSPI proposes to remove closed factories from IIP sample, aiming for truer picture of India’s industrial health in upcoming 2022–23 base series. Plan open to public feedback until 25 November.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
Periyar had problem only with Hindu deities and survived on commissions from converted gangs. Pathetics even today defend this maniac. Exceptional psycophancy.
For starters, please be accurate in your reporting and provide the full context for your audience. Rajinikanth did not “made a statement about Periyar.”, rather he was trying to explain who/what helped Cho/Thuglak in the early days of the magazine. So he recounted an incident in Salem involving Periyar.
There is no point in denying the truth but sometimes the truth is irrelevant. What Periyar did some decades ago is no longer relevant to the economic or social progress of our nation and so Rajini can be said to have cunningly brought this up with some ulterior motive. This is exactly the same as the Parivaar bringing up atrocities of the Mughals a ‘thousand years’ slavery” to influence voters thinking today.
Rajini could well have sung his political requiem for trying to ape those in the Parivar who are egging him on.
Hahaha..
Then same should be applied to those who r crying Brahmanical supremacy and oppression
Although I largely agree that this incident is irrelevant to the economical and social progress of this nation. But I support rajani in exposing bigotary of periyar and co because we are still ruled by so many of his minions who carry forward same kind of thinking even today. If votes are voting for someone, they must be fully aware of whom they are voting for. Access to right information to make your decisions is one of the fundamental pillars of democracy. Moreover he was speaking at thuglak event, so he is all justified in bringing up all incidences where the magazine did an amazing job and this is what we could call one of the bravest display of spirit of journalism despite all political suppression.
He was participating in Tuglakh event, so wanted to say something happened 49 years back to create more publicity for the magazine which has lost its charm when it used to take on government in power unlike Gurmurthy who does less accountancy work and instead work to connect each other.
If the incident was true, what is wrong in the oppressed Hindus (dalits) protesting against caste Hindus.If uppercaste Hindus show some humanity towards fellow Hindus,we won’t have this evil called casteism.Uppercaste take offence to idol insults but have no remorse for casteism
This BIMARU style Mandir politics does not carry any chance for a non DMK in TN politics. Keep flogging and you will be as successful as the congress in 53 years. Rath yatra bombed for BJP and now this 2nd attempt. The illiteracy of the party speaks loud matching DMK literacy..
