Sources : TN BJP President Murugan gets green flag for his “Vel Yatra “. The yatra to commence from Tiruthani to Tiruchendur. He will also cover important Murugan shrines across the state, including Ratnagiri, Chennimalai, Marudamalai and Sivanmalai. 1/n

The Vel Yatra will commence on 6th November and conclude on 6th December, owing to victory celebration of the demolition of Babri Masjid.

The primary focus of the yatra to be DMK. All along the route, BJP will invoke the ‘Karuppar Kootam’ incident 2/n

and portray that DMK is behind Karuppar Kootam and DMK is an anti-Hindu party.

And, wherever possible, wherever ‘sanghi officers’ are available, there the BJP will try to take the rally through Muslim populated areas / shrines, etc., to create a communal riot. 3/n

Also, the BJP has planned to use the recently joined prominent names in the party for areas with caste links. Annamalai, a Gounder will take care of the West Zone. Saravanakumar IRS, a mukkulathor will take care of the south and the rest including cosmopolitan areas 4/n

by ace kollywood star Khushboo.

Though Edappadi Palanisamy has been fully briefed by his intelligence wing, about the induction of several notorious rowdies in BJP, and their continuous intention to create communal unrest, 5/n

the pressure mounted by BJP high command to permit this yatra is scary, as it may cost his CM post and also a target of enforcement agencies.
6/n

It remains to be seen, whether EPS takes a call as a statesman and records his name in history, or meekly surrender and mark his name in the dark pages of history.
