Request to PTs: Please send this as an email to Shri Amit Shah and Shri Nityanand Rai
I am writing to you with respect to the situation with respect to Covid-19. Large sums of money have been remitted to India in the last 1 year. Many organizations have a significant cash /1
position. The position as of FY 2018-2019 was as follows:

634 large NGOs hold Rs 9576 crores in FD and cash – an average of Rs 15.1 crores
599 Medium NGOs hold Rs 1349 crores in FD and cash – an average of Rs 2.25 crores
17491 Small and Micro NGOs hold Rs 2189 crores in FD /2
and cash – an average of Rs 12.5 lakhs
It may be useful for these sums to be made available to the Government of India on a provisional basis at the same rate of interest as savings bank accounts. These can be paid into the PM CARES fund or into the MHA's special fund for /3
disaster management. The sum can be held for a period of 3 years and redeemed.
Incentives may be given to organizations that make available their income to the Government, to help tide over this time of crisis.
Sincerely,
<insert name>

Sishya - My Guru says X
Skeptic - Well, on what basis?
Si - On the basis of his own experience
Sk - What exactly is his experience?
Si - Those like you who have only bookish knowledge will not understand. To prove myself, here is an incident from book Y
Sk - Well, that is not /1
how the story goes. Here is the reference from the book itself + reference from a derivative text (commentary, subsequent text etc)
Si - That's why people of bookish knowledge will not understand. You rely on books. My Guru can give a scientific explanation /2
based on Quantum Physics, Relativity and Darwin
Sk - Well, let's see this scientific explanation
Si - Quantum Reality Morphed Transition Vortex
Sk - Errmm, which scientific theory/principle/book is that from?
Si - Advanced beings like my Guru know more than mere scientists /3

On DMK stages in the 50s, Rajaji was said to have used his daughter to make his political life, since his daughter was married to Gandhi's son. ஆச்சாரியார் கட்டியும் கொடுப்பார் ..... were the words on stage. The world is now seeing the depths of political discourse.
Dr Nair on Annie Besant. The Dravidian movement was always led by crass boors.

There are 1,85,84,153 rice cards in TN. Rs 1000 to each card holder = Rs 1858 crores/month or 22,300 crores pa. TN budget expense for last year was roughly Rs 3 lakh crores. This bloats the expense by 7% and doubles the revenue deficit tncsc.tn.gov.in/html/pds.htm
We can foresee another year of slow tax receipts, so one can foresee debt over hang to increase from 5 lakh crores by another 10% in the next 3 years just due to this single entitlement. To compare, the entire pensions budget of TN is Rs 30,000 crores annually.
Fine print: This will not be distributed through DBT bank transfers. It will be disbursed as cash at the ration shop upon production of the ration card and biometric verification. Local partymen act as gatekeepers and take a 10% cut. Already, a revenue stream of Rs 180 crore pm

After nearly a 100 years of management by the Govt, PTR accepts that 11000 temples are going without even one puja a day. He is asking Jaggi Vasudev to spend his money on ensuring puja is done. As an example, he says his family spent their money on getting the kumbhabhishekam /1
done.
Note: He offers no explanation on why 4.75 lakh acres of temple lands are not being managed to generate sufficient revenue. Simple question back - Why did Mr Thiagarajan's family have to foot the bill for kumbhabhishekam when Vadapalani Murugan temple has urban assets /2
in commercially attractive parts of Chennai at its disposal?
The State is unable to manage these assets and only asks private parties to put in their money to redress the loss of revenue. What logic is this?
Every muhurtham day, you will find scores of young people /3

Why's the Dravidian media singing hosannas to Smt Sasikala? They think she will do a JJ and consolidate the AMMK-AIADMK splinters. Then it will be back to the days of a dual-party oligarchy with 2 revolving doors.
Sorry, mitron, this is not 1990. Mu Ka was then a sprightly 66 /1
with an energetic 37 yr old Stalin by his side. JJ was 42, with a whole career in politics ahead of her. VKS is a sickly woman with years in prison behind her and a lonely widowhood stretching ahead. Her courtiers are not JJ's courtiers. MKS is aging with a heir apparent who's /2
a teenager stuck in a 40-yr-old man's body. The courtiers are fat, slow and too rich. Where are the subaltern up-and-coming leaders? Where are the idealists? There is too much cynicism. The Dravidian dream is beginning to fray. MBCs want nothing more than to Sanskritize /3

@Dharmi2020 Very, very important reason.
In British rule, the dubashes, zamindars and moneylenders made large amounts of money and enjoyed high status.
In dyarchy, popular vote meant they had to give up some of that to middle class professionals. Many of the middle-class professionals who
@Dharmi2020 became the new elite were lawyers, judges, bureaucrats. Tam Brahms had volumes in bureaucracy + had captured high positions + led Independence movement in Madras Presidency.
Convergence of interests of dubash-zamindar-moneylender with British.
@Dharmi2020 From The Politics of South India 1920-1937 by Christopher John Baker - in 1890s this dubash-zamindar-moneylender clique was challenged by this new Mylapore Set.
