again a motte and bailey trick.. if you probe a bit deeper like me, they will back up into "we are only asking this as an option..." but if you pull back they will ""தமிழ்நாட்டு நாடு சாமிக்கு தமிழில் மட்டும்.." (only tamil archanai for gods on tamil soil)
If you back off - they will occupy the bailey and push further. see if you accept the argument then .. 'தமிழ்நாட்டு சாமிக்கு எதுக்கு வடமொழி பெயர் " - அதென்னன சுந்தரேஸ்வரர் மீனாட்சி (மீன்ஆக்ஷி) - அதென்ன நட..ராஜா " .. அப்போ hue and cry பண்ண முடியுமா.
in english. If you accept because you dont want to fight now they will push to change the name of the Deities too -- why Meenakshi/Sundareswarar/Natarajar/... how will you answer that? You cant -- so you damn well raise a hue and cry now 😃😃

so thread on rajendra chola. why isnt he more popular? they ask. the answer lies in the Dravidian zeitgeist which continues to this day. 1/
In general the dravidian movement plays down Tamil kingdoms because it was in the initial stages led by nonTamils. Second the missionaries posited the entire span of Tamil history as 'period of darkness'.
Now the main thing is Tamil kings were *vedic - in particular the Cholas. The Dravidian imperative is Anti-Vedic , Anti-Brahmin, Anti-Tamil-Vedjic. So that doesnt square. next question. Why Rajendra I ?
Imagine you throw a birthday party for your kid. One guest gifts him a scrabble set. Then your kid becomes a famous author.
The guy who gifted the scrabble demands a royalty. Because ''எங்க பணத்துல ' it is because of my gift.
when mercantile dravidian castes donated to temples, it was for a purpose and in total compliance of the rules in effect at that time. If X didnt donate Y would have.
Today the descendants (claiming to be - dont trust anything in #D but play along) of those groups are driving to throw vedas/brahmins/sanskrit out of temples. And then what? What if those descendants convert and demand to take the temple with them? Ever thought about it?
here .. @governorswaraj this is causing "disaffection against ethnic group". Get this translated by your nearest Tamil speaking lawyer - when faced with real criminal minds we tuck our tails dont we??
Ok. looks like our $400M Thinktanks wont step up. It is me again to explain the foundation issues while battling #D in Tamizh as well. The announcement by Modi of 27% OBC and 10% EWS quota in UG and PG Medical AIQ. What is this?
So there are three types of seats : 1. State govt seats - domicile only 2. Central institutes (AIIMS,PGIMER,etc) - all india 3. Seats surrendered by states to Onriyam(Centre) - all India
There is already OBC quota in 1 (each state per their own OBC lists) and 2 (AIIMS/JIPMER pondicheretc)
தகைசால் தமிழர்.. (தகைசாற் தமிழர்?) / தகை.. (தக.. தகுதி ) பெருந்தகை (பெரும்+தகை) விருது யாருக்கு?
🤜 நான் எதிர் அணி. இருந்தாலும் என் கருத்து -> இந்த விருது கண்டிப்பாக **மஞ்சை வசந்தன்** அவர்களுக்கு வழங்க பட வேண்டும்.
நான் சும்மா ட்ரோல் செய்யவில்லை. ஆயிரம் திராவிட-தமிழ் புலவர்கள் பெரிய இடங்களில் பேராசிரியர் போன்ற பதவிகளில் இருந்தும். . இவர் ஒருவர் தான் நாகசாமியின் 'திருக்குறள்' புத்தகத்திற்கு மறுப்பு நூல் எழுதினார்.

I committed to blog about the famous #Dravidian "Kasi" saga of Mr E.V.Ramasamy (Periyar) but it may take time I have too much on my plate. So let me just put the evidence up here in interest of public. (In English because of interest expressed) 1/
Essentially the story goes Periyar left his house in ~1905 in a huff and spent a couple of years (or lesser) as a wandering hindu sadhu mendicant in AP (Bezawada / Hyd) -- he was accompanied by two Tamizh brahmins Venkatrama Iyer and Ganapati Iyer
The three would go around and give religious discourses -- the two tamizhbrahmin would speak in tamil and Periyar would humorously translate it to Telugu in his own irreverent style. This story is installed deep into every tamilian as a #D foundation issue. see this movie scene
