Here is the link to the Writ Petition filed in November 2019 by the guardians of the Tiruchendur Sri Subrahmanya Swamy Temple along with the @indiccollective challenging over 45 provisions of the TNHRCE Act 1959 and the rules framed thereunder- indiccollective.org/portfolio-item…
On December 18, 2019, the said Petition, W. P. (C) No. 1432/2019, was tagged with the Writ Petition filed by the late Swami Dayananda Saraswathi ji, W. P. (C) No. 476/2012 and the Writ Petition filed by the Podu Dikshitars of the Chidambaram Temple W. P. (C) No. 544/2009.
I will be shortly writing a series of pieces to factually take down brick by brick the motivated, manufactured & baseless myths pushed by those who stand in the way of Temple Freedom. None of the bogeys cited to defend State Control of Temples holds water on the ground.
I will also address the much touted issue of "Who will manage the Temples after the State exits" and d rank ignorance & urban elitism surrounding d issue of traditional Temple Management structures. While I do not dismiss the legitimacy of these concerns,concerns are not facts.

1. In this thread,I will share whatever mails/messages I have received from #BangladeshiHindus without revealing their identities. Pls consider sharing this thread widely so that the world knows the terror they live in & how "healing" isn't remotely in their foreseeable future.
2. Read
3. Put yourself in the shoes of a #BangladeshiHindu parent and read this mail.
1. Why are certain "Kalpo"nik anonymous handles sharing only the case title instead of the link to the entire order in which I appeared as the arguing counsel for Puja Dileeprao Khedkar in 2020? Here's why. Link to the complete order - indiankanoon.org/doc/90472983/
2. I appeared as the arguing counsel in a petition relating to her representation to the UPSC seeking copies of her answer sheet in 2020 after she had *failed* to clear the prelims. The Petition I appeared in had nothing to do her with caste or disability certificates.
3. Neither her disability nor caste certificates were the subject of the Petition I appeared in. That was an altogether different Petition which she appears to have filed separately. I am sure the mischievous "Kalpo"niks could have found this out through a simple Google search.
1. As the day ends & the dust of election settles,I think,despite the losses,congratulations are in order to the BJP-led NDA for having the numbers to form a government for the 3rd consecutive time.All said & done,what could have been a Panipat was averted with a close shave.
2. As of this tweet, this is the final position. Come to think of it, but for UP, Rajasthan and Bengal, these numbers speak a lot but not enough. After all, numbers don't tell the entire story in my limited view as a layperson in the realm of psephology.
3. I don't have the resources or the first-hand knowledge to distill the reasons for the outcome. With this caveat, I will air a few general expectations which, in my view, are legitimate and reasonable. Whether they led to the outcome or not is for stakeholders to decide.
I will :-) Unsurprisingly,they are latching on to d edited title instead of responding to the contents of the 4 articles I have written thus far on the subject. At least 6 pieces on Dravidianism are in d pipeline. I expect a lot more whining from Periyarites and Blue Rageboys :-)
Late last yr,I appeared virtually from Delhi before d Madras HC for an Intervenor in d Udhayanidhi Stalin hate speech case. By then,I had started publishing d series on d anti-Dharmic origins of Dravidianism after Udhayanidhi Stalin's speech. Here's what happened in open Court.
The entire defense of Periyarites defending Udhayanidhi Stalin's hate speech against Sanatana Dharma was that his statement was fully covered by permissible free speech under d Constitution. So asking for eradication of Sanatana Dharma,according to them,was protected free speech.
@KhalidBaig85, I am not at all surprised at your disagreement.If u recollect,in my conversation with Amana ji & u,I had clearly said that reclamation isn't limited to Kashi & Mathura.Since both of u are so keen to get Hindus to support the Pasmanda Muslim cause,here's a thought.
The PoW Act expressly states that it doesn't prevent parties from a peaceful return of occupied sites through a mutual settlement. Since you are so concerned about confrontation,why can't you encourage the Pasmandas to support the Hindu case for return of occupied Hindu sites?
That way,acrimonious litigation in Courts & the confrontation you apprehend can also be avoided.And the claim that the Pasmandas r different from Ashrafs in their perception of Bharat’s history becomes credible. In any case,how can u justify continued occupation of Hindu sites?
