When Victoria Venkataramanamma's brother was the Premier of Madras Presidency, the world went through the Great Depression. Even after economic recovery began in the rest of the world, this Province remained in a decade of stagnation from 1932-1937. The rich zamindars who /1
made up the Cabinet took 50% higher salaries than Ministers in other provinces. Congress brought a resolution asking for ryotwari tax to be reduced so that suffering peasants could get relief. The zamindars refused to reduce taxes unless it was reduced for them, too. /2
As a consequence, the peasants were drowning in debt. The zamindars and their moneylender cronies who ran the Govt swooped in and took over lands. In some regions like Tirunelveli, half the peasant population was dispossessed of their lands. Crop prices across all crops fell /3 Image

CSI - Thoothukudi Nazareth Diocese has 100 odd parishes and 2 lakh parishioners in one district of TN. They run 10 colleges, 19 High Schools, 1 Teacher's Training Institute, 6 High Schools, 5 schools for special children, 5 hospitals. All educational institutions get Govt aid /1
All 100 odd parishes will have Churches that can solemnize marriages. They also have halls and catering for wedding functions, betrothals, baptisms. A lay secretary is elected by parishioners. Naturally, this is tightly contested. Among the reasons given by the current /2
Lay Secretary's rivals is that he has married 'out of caste' to a Roman Catholic. They are also demanding that families whose members have married people from other religions without converting them must be disqualified from the vote as they are no longer really parish /3

This will play out exactly the way Aryan Vandheris want it to.
These Vandheris have come with their begging bowls in hand and a innocent Mulnivasi Zamindar has given them traditional advisor position.
They will make one trip per quarter and stay with parents in Besant Nagar. /1
Take Amma and Appa to hospital, kutcheris, stock up on Grand Sweets murukku and Nalli Sarees. One ppt for bored babus and ministers.
After the presentation,
Babu 1: Sir, your point on debt servicing was simply brilliant. Are there any openings in the next batch at /2
your university for mid-career public policy programmes?
Babu 2: Sir, I never thought about household investment that way until you explained. My Periya Athan's brother's nephew is applying next Spring. Would it be possible to give a recommendation?
Minister: Saar, how to /3

Excellent social experiment by Vignesh. Proces how Dravidam flies under the radar by using language of social justice.
- 3% is dog whistle/code for Brahmins, specifically Tamil Brahmins
- The speaker belongs to a community that owns a huge part of capital and businesses
enjoys huge clout in media and in religious institutions and has claimed exalted ritual position for millenia. However, you will never see him discuss what his people could do. Rather, he brackets his people as victims along with the most marginalized.
- To transpose this, go to
Punjab, and make the claim that Khatris are the reason why the rest of Punjab are trapped in poverty. Create a term called Khatrism, which you define as the social order that keeps SC people out of gurdwara and that the Khalistani movement was a result of Khatrism.

Chellam Sir is an exemplar of why we, as a nation, are such under-achievers. He's the Vidhayak Chacha of 'Deus Ex Machina' plot devices. Everytime the writers have absolutely no clue on taking the plot forward, he just steps in. The fact that we make a big deal of him also /1
shows up our mindset as a people. Like the fact that in one of our earliest rockets launched out of Thumba had to be ferried to the launchpad on a bullock cart. Because they failed to plan for a truck. And we think that it is a cool thing to do. This, by the way, is something /2
even our most celebrated writers have done. In Sivakamiyin Sapatham, one of the late Kalki's worst novels (which was the first made into a movie, predictably), the Pallavan Emperor plays 'Deus Ex Machina' disguised as a sannyasi to help a young prince woo his own daughter /2

The pathology behind the responses of 'கதறு.. கதறு..' when a patent lie is sought to be refuted. Image
In the case of anti-Semitism in Christiandom, it was hate speech for a century or so --> legal second citizen status for 2-3 centuries--> pogroms starting from Reconquista --> Final Solution. What started as 'just speech' and 'justified grievances' escalated over time into
fantastic accusations - such as medieval tales of child sacrifice. Popular support is less important when the corridors of power are infested for decades with this miasma of hate.
