Acid Thiagarajan story – Dravidian elites valorising Dalit attacking Tamizh Brahmins
One of the common themes we hear from both Dravidians and their New Delhi allies is “But no one got killed”. When pushed, they retreat to “there were no violence”.
For an actual Dravidian Discourse Analyst like it made absolutely no sense that a movement that is built on announcing malevolent intent via propaganda 24×7 would not have capacity for actual graded violence. Would anyone merely announce their mens rea (Criminal mind) but not have any capability to back it up.
Here is a leading mainstream Periyarist Dravidian organization celebrating a terrorist act of physical assault as a way to inspire more such assaults.
Background – the public prosecutor Srinivasachari
Periyar (EV Ramaswamy Nayakar) made a speech calling for murder of atleast 3000 Tamizh Brahmins and arson of their houses besides calling for burning of Indian Constitution. Following this legal action was hesitatingly taken by the then Congress government in Tamilnadu upon prodding by Jawaharlal Nehru. The judge then sentenced Periyar for 3 years jail. The Public Prosecutor who appeared for the TN Government was a Tamizh Brahmin by name of Srinivasachari. This Dravidian hero in an act of revenge threw acid and assaulted the Tamizh Brahmin prosecutor.
Punched and threw acid on Srinivasachariar face ..
The story is recounted in Tamil. I have translated to English below.
If it is Vanchinathan for you !
It is acid Thiagarajan for us !!
My dear Comrade Sinnasami stood with me. We were getting ready for a big plot. Do you know how much money we had ? Four Annas. I heard the news first hand.
Periyar did not announce anything about Viduthalai (a signal of sorts) but I heard news that a Government Lawyer was to participate for Republic Day celebrations. I told my friend Sinnasamy “I have decided. You please leave from here. Long Live Periyar we saluted and shook hands and took leave
Then Sinnasamy pulled me aside and refused to take leave from me. He said “Let me also join you” At that time I said “No please you leave, I have forgotten even my mother and for me only Periyar is important now”
Mr Srinivasachari participated in Republic Day celebrations and was returning. Then, in front of police view itself I grabbed his neck and strangulated him. I screamed “RASCAL” to his face .. then I threw ACID on his face. When he fell down the 8’O clock siren blew. Then I punched him on shoulder and face. Then 300 people chased me.. they could not catch me.
Then police took me for investigation. The Police inspected was very respectful to me, he made me sit equally and put his arms around my shoulder. Then he asked ” There are so many Periyar cadre, why are you so concerned more than them. Why are you alone doing such extremist acts”.
Then I told.
You are from lowered (Backwarded) community I am from oppressed (Dalit) community. You have now made me sit as equal and put hand on my shoulder. 25 years ago I was untouchable. That has been given by Periyar to me. I said.
Original in Tamil
Guile and very fine tuned messaging
This is not a normal outburst. Both the message and delivery are results of very fine tuned propaganda methods. Note the following.
- Vanchinathan is for you – like that Acid is for us. Where you = Brahmins? us = NonBrahmins (Dravidians) ? See how this message is delivered? That fighting a foreign imperial power is on the same level as killing a citizen. If the Dravidian-Tamil argument is that the Tamil Brahmins are not citizens of India but need to be expelled. Then it is incumbent on the Indian state to protect itself.
- 8’o clock siren – this invoking of a factory industrial metaphor is to rouse the communists and attach themselves to anti-semitic like Tamil Brahmin hatred.
- Police being kind – to seed the impression that Tamilnadu Police is sympathetic to Dravidian criminal assault on Tamilzh Brahmins. This can be used to convey ‘dont worry, police is on our side’ and hence attract criminals.
- Dalit as soldiers – the actual criminal Thiagarajan is making an absurd statement to appear to be a reasonable excuse. The police inspector is OBC .. and the criminal a Dalit. The Dalit justifies acid attack on the Tamizh Brahmin Lawyer Srinivasachari as the method due to which the OBC who treated him as untouchable is being nice to him. The straight line logic is that the Dalit should hit the OBC who oppressed him.
Police sympathy with the acid attacker theme
This says “rhe police inspected who was smoking a cigarette in front of me also started crying..”
This story is carried in Kalaignar News – a leading Tamil media outlet.
The tamil has a spelling mistake முன்னாள் instead of முன்னால் – a propaganda theme that hints to potential cadre who can supply the actual criminal capacity not to fear the Police as they are also aligned.
As per (1) , after the incident Acid Thiagarajan hid – then Police caught him and later he was released for lack of evidence. Apparently Periyar himself paid for the lawyers.
This criminal was honored in a stage of Dravidian organizations.
There is a genius at work behind this.
In cahoots with Law and Order
In cahoots with Media.
Dravidian Tamils openly celebrating an activist who boasts about his plan to Kill Nehru
Further , this Trichy “Acid” Thiagarajan has proudly supplied testimony how he plotted to kill Nehru. It goes like this (as per the blog )
Yes, during the Hindi protests in Tamilnadu. Nehru had called Tamils as “nonsense”.
As usual , I got furious. Right at that time Nehru happened to visit Trichy. The day prior to his visit to Trichy men were guarding the railway tracks with lights. I hid near the railway tracks out of sight. I had a bomb attached to a rope. As the train with Nehru approached I planned to toss it into the tracks. Then the train with the Ashoka Chakra emblem rolled by. To toss the bomb I got ready and looked up – it is at that moment I saw at the compartment door Kamaraj standing majestically with arms on hip. I remembered then that Green Tamizhar (Original Tamizhar) Kamaraj was supported by Periyar. So I dropped the bomb and started crying.
This story appears in a Dravidian blog –
Invited as a guest of honour in Dravidan conference in 2007 Tanjavur
Apparently this Acid Thiagarajan was invited as a special guest where he made the speech boasting about his attempt to murder and also other stuff.
What matters is :
- If this is bravado and falsehood – it cannot be of relevance
- The bravado is seen as an act of virtue and hence is celebrated because they want people like this.

Dravidian source literature is nothing more than hate screeds
I have written earlier about the obsessive references to prostitutes in E.V.Ramawamy (Periyars) own writings. While this is blindingly obvious to any reading the material and listening to the discourse in Tamil itself. “Collected Works of Periyar” brings it to you in English. You can see how faar out Dravidian writings are from civilized discourse.
Recurring theme of prostitutes in Dravidian ideological source material
The purpose of Dravidian material whether in book form, pamphlet, tweet, video, movie, or any cultural output is to vulgarly abuse and spew hate material towards the Tamil Brahmins. This is systemic in the sense it is everywhere and it is used to explain everything.
Reference list
I collected the references to “Prostitutes” in the Collected Works of Periyar book.
Quite stunning. The Tamil Non-Brahmin society has chosen Dravidian ideology and Periyar. Would it not be demoralizing to both consume and deny ? You can as a group insist to believe a falsehood – but you demoralize yourself.

Vulgar obscene hate in Tamil – prostituting wife
The Non-Brahmin tamils insist vehemently that Periyar was a feminist. That their ideology is only about social justice. That they are merely defending themselves against a very powerful minority Tamil group. That they only want representation for non-Brahmins.
All that is fine and dandy, but that is not what the direct evidence says.
Here Periyar (representing the backend NonBrahmin-Dravidian intellectual forces) says “Tamil Brahmins prostitute their women to Non-Brahmins. Note how prostitute is used as a verb here.
Is this the hoax of the millenium??
Iraniyan Allathu Inayattra Veeran – a nefariously hateful Dravidian retelling of Narasimha Avataram
In the new 2022 book The Rule of the Commoner – DMK and the formation of the political in Tamilnadu 1947-1967, Cambridge University Press – Rajan Kurai Krishnan the principal author interprets the play இரணியன் அல்லது இணையற்ற வீரன் “Hiranyakashipu the matchless hero” to an English speaking audience.
I was quite shocked to read how he wielded considerable word skills to appear to discuss the plot of the play but never touching the vile and vulgar anti-brahmin hate propaganda that underlies the play. The author plays down the techniques of the play simply as a Non Brahmin Dravidian response to “Aryan Brahmins re-narrating ordinary events with infusion of supernatural elements”.
The reality is only known to Tamil anti-Dravidians like myself who actually read the original play in Tamil. The play has very little to do with the Hiranyakashipu Prahaladan or Narasimha avataram. The play spreads vile narratives about the guile of Tamil Brahmins who use their women to deploy sexual seduction techniques. This followed by a screed of repeating the usual Anti-Brahmin canards in Act after Act. The anti-Brahmin is not even subtle or insidiously placed as you would find in the Nazi film Jud Suss (1940).
Follow me as I show you what the Play was actually about and the centrality of the play in Dravidian ideology.
Iraniyan allathu inayattra veeran ( இரணியன் அல்லது இணையற்ற வீரன் ) 1934 ; The Matchless Hero Hiranyakashipu
This play was a watershed moment in the Anti-Brahmin / Non-Brahmin movement. Those who are curious about the ideological foundations of the remarkably resilient “Dravidian Movement” never bother to stop and seek to see the sources. This play is one of the fundamental sources of the Dravidian movements argumentation.
This play was first staged on 9-9-1934 in front of Mr. E.V. Ramaswamy “Periyar” in VP Hall in Chennai. This play was written by one of the leading intellectuals of the Dravidian movement Bharathidasan (Mr Kanaka Subburathinam). There is a University named after him today. However, the play was conceived and produced by Mr S. Gurusamy Mudaliar “Kuthoosi”. One of the most energetic , prolific, and creative producer of Anti-Brahmin material in my opinion. From 1927 to 1965 Mr S. “Kuthoosi” Gurusamy wrote over 5000 essays drilling the same canards and accusations in ever different ways. His influence on Barathidasan was considerable.
Mr S. “Kuthoosi” Gurusamy himself played the title role. The supporters and cast features the who’s who of the Non-Brahmin Educated Tamil elite of that era. The play was screened in front of leading intellectuals such as K.M. Balasubramaniam, T.Sambandam, T.N.Raman. It was also staged in front of P.T.Rajan. Mylai Seeni Venkatasami (Naidu) raved about the play as “unsurpassed” for its content tailored to the underclass to rouse their passions.
Before we look into the play – we need to understand the Prahalathan story that is the Narasimha Avataram story.
Narasimha Avatar and the story of Prahalathan
A quick recap of the story of Prahalathan (Prahalad) is in order here for completeness of this article. In my view the Narasimha avatar is one of the most philosophically profound stories in all of Hindu texts.
Narasimha Avatar is the story of the supreme Lord manifesting as a half-lion half-man to put an end to the tyranny of the narcisstic King Hiranyakashipu.
It goes like this. A narcissistic King does great penance to Lord Brahma and obtains a boon. That he cannot be killed in Day or Night, by Man or Beast, indoors or outdoors, by metal or by wood, on earth or on sky, and so forth. Sounds like he has plygged all the holes ! He has a young son by name of Prahalad who is a devotee of Lord Narayana. He refuses to obey his fathers various laws in his Kingdom. Laws were put in place where the people were forced to worship him and the sole God. Various attempts to reform Prahalad failed. Things move towards a spectacular showdown. The King Hiranyan demands to know where the Lord Narayana is – to that the child Prahalathan says “he is everywhere even in this pillar”. It a fit of rage the King kicks the pillar setting in motion the fearsome manifestation of the Narasimha Avatar. All the boons obtained by the King from Lord Brahma are nullified as the fearsome Lion-Man who is neither man nor beast, grabs the King and places him across his thighs neither earth nor sky, plunges his nails – neither metal nor wood – in the twilight. Neither day nor night. Many have expounded on the philosophical and psychological aspects of this remarkable story.
In fact the great Tamil poet Kamban goes one step ahead of the others in describing the scene. In one of the famous verses of the Kamba Ramayanam he goes
“சாணினும் உளன்; ஓர் தன்மை, அணுவினைச்
சத கூறு இட்ட கோணினும் உளன்; மா மேருக் குன்றினும் உளன் ;
இந் நின்ற தூணினும் உளன்; நீ சொன்ன சொல்லினும் உளன் ;In response to his fathers demand to know where this Lord exists Prahalathan says “He lives in the span of a hand, also in that tiniest of particles that is a result of split the tinest of particles into a hundred parts, he is in Meru mountain, in this pillar and also in the words that you just spoke” Surreal Kamban! I say this to indicate that the legend of Prahalathan is deep in Tamil psyche for millenia. This is not something recently infused that the Dravidian Anti-Tamil-Brahmin vanguards sought to demolish. They want to rollback to a checkpoint 2500 yrs ago, not merely 200 years. In the process they steamroll and destroy all that is worthy in Tamil such as Kamban.
Lets move on to the actual play.
Kamba Ramayanam 6312 – a famous verse
The plot of Iraniyan .. Chitrabanu the Aryan Brahmin (TB) seductress
As per the lore, Prahalathan was merely a 5 year old boy. The first thing the elite Dravidian playwrights did was to ignore this. It is hard to overlay a story of female seduction on a boy. This is a feature on can observe in Dravidian arguments to this day. An appeal to the prurient. They figured out quite correctly early on that the uneducated masses could not be presented a nuanced or logical narration. The vulgar and the prurient mixed with vile stereotyping of an identifiable group would serve the purpose.
Enter the real protagonist of Iraniyan. A fictional seductress named Chitrabanu. The main character.
The story goes like this.
Hiranyan was a just Dravidian king who believed in self respect. In preparation for his coronation he sends Prahalathan to visit neighboring kingdoms to learn the systems in place there. Accompanying the prince is his Tamizh Brahmin schoolmate and close friend Kangeyan. While taking rest in a beautiful garden the friends come across a damsel in distress Chitrabanu. Using her beauty and sweet talk she makes Prahalathan fall in love with her. The prince is then secretly married by the Aryan Brahmin clan leader and Chitrabanu’s father Gajaketu.
The prince Prahalathan is blissfully unaware of the treacherous ways of the Aryan Tamil Brahmins. In reality, the beautiful Tamizh Brahmin woman Chitrabanu is the sister of his close friend. The brother and father deployed the beauty to ensnare the prince. The friend pretends to not even know his own sister. True to the nature, the women has also seduced the commander of the King Hinranyakashipu.
Meanwhile there is turmoil in the Kingdom as Aryan Brahmins (Tamizh Brahmins) have waylaid the highway and are raising slogans in praise of their Lord and putting down the Dravidian. The enraged king orders mass arrest of all and issues various orders to punish them. Such a gouging out the eyes, chopping the hand, beheading, etc. The Tamizh Brahmin (Aryan) seductress Chitrabanu who has also entrapped the Dravidian commander in her beauty, manages to free all of the convicts.
On the day of the coronation, the prince Prahalathan revolts and mentions the name Lord Narayana. Guided by Chitrabanu in mans clothing. The enraged King Hiranyakashipu gives the boy a day to recant. This leads to the final act where all the actors are mixed up in a chaotic melee. Prahalathan says the Lord Narayana is also in the pillar , then he kicks the pillar and out jumps a clown wearing a Lion costume. He is none other than the brother of Chitrabanu ,the student Brahmin friend of the prince. The King laughs at the clown and kicks him hard. The costume flies and the brother dies. The king haughtily asks in a Punch Dialog “If I kick the Pillar – Narayana appears, If I kick Narayana will a pillar appear”!
Then a scuffle ensues as the cowardly brahmin crowd stabs the King from the back. He dies, The Dravidian queen commits suicide. The commander on seeing Chitrabanu weeping for her brother finds a note. He discovers he is being two timed by Chitrabanu and Prahalathan. He stabs Prahalathan who dies. Then he commits suicide.
Play in acts
Now plays are not narrated in the way I just described the parts. The dialogs, songs, emotions, costumes, and the way they are delivered are the key to reaching inside the audience’s minds. Now let us see actual dialogues and songs from the play. You can see that the play itself is only a vehicle to transmit vile Anti-Tamizh-Brahmin thoughts and seed them deep into the Tamil working classes.
Since they are in Tamil,let me translate them for you.
Disambiguation of Aryan as Brahmin. A redirection technique.
For a hate propaganda to work the disgusting evil has to be traced to an actual contemporary proximate living group. Aryan does not sufficiently do that. Are Mudaliars or Naidus or Vellalas Aryans ? Are they talking about Trump, Biden , Churchill, Napolean as Aryan. Or even Nehru, Rahul Gandhi , Sachin Pilot. Of course not.
So while the play uses Aryan in most places there is a clear disambiguation provided in the first act itself when the treacherous friend Kangeyan introduces himself as a timid Aryan Brahmin.
Our bravery is to use women to seduce
In the act where the secret marriage of Prahalathan takes place with Chitrabanu, the play features a dance to this song.
The song says “to spread the web of sexual seduction is our bravery” , “after drinking the soma rasa – there are no relations” ; This is a way to seed a stereotype of the Aryan (redirected from Tamizh Brahmin) as a promiscuous drunken rave community who use their women. Chitrabanu’s own father does not think twice about deploying his daughter in such a sleazy double affair seduction. Neither her brother who uses his sister to seduce his friend.
Dogs .. those who fattened themselves
Remember the act where the Dravidian Non-Brahmin Hiranyakashipu sentences loads of Aryans (Brahmins) to various sentences. That is nothing but a stage for propaganda. The propaganda here is to use the mouth of the leader of the Dravidians “Iraniyan” to state his preferred solution to the Brahmin (Aryan) problem.
Daily those who have grabbed and stolen and fattened themselves. These dogs who are sticking to the nation and sucking and blooming.. these dogs.. take a sword and chop off their two arms.
This is how the story so innocuously narrated by the Dravidian interpreter Rajan Kurai Krishnan actually sounded and was taken to the people. Dogs, parasite memes..
Eradicate every root of Aryans from this land ..
In the same act,, the thoughtful Dravidian minister says how to go about dealing with the Aryan (redirected to Brahmin) threat.
The Minister to the King Hiranyan: At this very moment, we need to eradicate to the root Aryans from this land.
The King concurs : You are right Minister
In the final act, the commander does a monologue. That calls for outright eradication of Tamizh Brahmins from this land and turn the land into “For Tamils only”. Once again keep in mind the redirection technique I explained earlier. Aryan here has been disambiguated. Failing which the actors or support staff can simply whisper into the crowd who they actually mean by Aryans .. it isn’t Churchill or Joe Biden they are talking about.
Eunuchs.. Cunning foxes.. by birth unmanly.. goes on..
The play attacks Aryans once again a proxy for Tamizh Brahmins as Eunuchs, without male parts, fox crowd..
You can notice the accusation is eerily similar to Anti-Semitism .. accusing a group of trying to bring the entire world under their control.
Brahmin (Aryan) women f.. multiple partners
The Dravidian-Tamil king informs his people about the qualities of Aryan (i.e. Tamizh Brahmin) women in a fiery monologue thus:
Curious sexual elements of Chitrabanu
Since the play is the product of the finest brains of the Non-Brahmin elites, I was pretty sure there would be hidden meanings. One of the curious elements I noticed was the odd behavior of Chitrabanu (the Brahmin seductress of Dravidian Prahalathan and the Commander)
She never really put out !! But she was a tease.
Her tease is carried in a titillating manner in the play itself. Using a Vratam
Denial of physical relationship using some religious excuse
You see Brahmin women are not even proper seductresses rather just teases.
During her interaction with the commander, she seduces him with hugs and offers another Kiss. During the most desparate times she even declares her temporary vow of abstinence to be over! In order to save her clan. This is to show the the piety of the Brahmins is bogus. They will discard it in a moment if push comes to shove.
I think this is what happens. It is brilliant !
If Chitrabanu was shown as actually marrying and copulating with a Dravidian-Tamil prince. Then it turns the present day Dravidian Non-Brahmin elites into a mixed race. What could be worse than that. You see the lack of logic ! The obvious way would simply be for Chitrabanu to feign Tamil-Dravidian and then marry Prahatlthan and then become the queen. There is no need to murder Hiranyan cause an uproar! But it is irrelevant – the purpose of the play is to transmit the laundry list of vile canards on Tamil Brahmins using the Aryan redirection technique explained above.
The Dravidian-Tamil weakness for fair skin women..
The final part : the Dravidain Queen Lilavathi asks the Dravidian-Tamil King Hiranyakashipu innocently. /i
The Queen Lilavathi asks innocently : I am unable to understand why Tamilians are falling for Aryans words !
The King Iranyan (Played by Kuthoosi Gurusamy himself ) would then say : Aryans use their women to entrap young Tamil men. The Aryan women are fair skinned. They go after the Kings using cunning..
Conclusion
The play Iraniyan Allathu Inayatra Veeran is the vilest example of Anti-Tamizh-Brahmin propaganda. This is not merely a random play but a trend setter. Even before C.N. Annathurai used the medium of plays for propaganda Kuthoosi S. Gurusami and Bharathidasan wrote and staged this play all over Tamilnadu. Several of the tropes I find on Tamil social media such as “பெண்களைக் கூட்டிக் கொடுத்தல்” (sending their women) can be traced to this play.
In 1948, the Governement banned this play and the book. The Dravidian interpreter Rajan Kurai Krishnan calls this a ‘repressive measure”. The ban was lifted the moment DMK came into power in 1967.
The play lacks nuance, logic, any philosophical message, or social justice imperative. It is not even true to the original story it wishes to rebuke. The chief trick being the need to turn the five year old child Prahalathan into an adult in order to overlay a amorous story. The chief character is Chitrabanu a completely fictional creation. None of these matter – the Prahalathan story is merely a canvas or a medium to propagate toxic Anti-Brahminism. If not this story, some thing else – just replace your favorite demon say Surapathman. The story can be readily adapted.
In recent years, there is renewed effort to stage this play across Tamilnadu. It has been staged in Cuddalore and other places. The play is available in book format all over the internet. Online the Tamil Virtual University features it. In 2019, The Hindu ran a feature about the renewed push to reintroduce this play.
Moral of this blog : Always double check and triple check the Dravidian English interpreters. Check in Tamil directly.
Dravidian defensive responses to exposure of ideology
Any counter propaganda effort requires stamina. Hate propaganda such as the Dravidian ideology is built on telling numerous small lies continuously. The sheer cadence would be overwhelming. Which is why Dravidian elites exhibit hyper vigilance traits.
A really well written Twitter thread was doing the rounds a couple of days ago by Shyam Sekhar :
The thread goes on to say how the most privileged castes using Anti-Brahmin hate propaganda were able to create an alliance where they became the leaders occupying all top positions and in the process disenfranchising the Tamizh Brahmins. His thread is absolutely spot on. This is not an upper caste verssus lower or oppressor versus oppressed. Dravidian movement is Tamizh Brahmin versus Non-Brahmin-Upper-Castes. Which is why you see the Cabinet is filled with Non Brahmin Elites !!
Another key point to note is the complete disregard to the lived experience epistemology of the Tamizh Brahmin. In plain English – the actual lived experience of Tamil Brahmins under Dravidian Non Brahmin Elite rule counts for nothing. The non Brahmin elites who I track simply joke about this or share some troll memes. Even when presented with direct evidence of their own leaders from their own castes literally calling for killing of Tamizh Brahmins or proudly recounting cases of criminal physical assault such as forcibly cutting the sacred tufts.
However the lived experience ‘life stories’ of Dravidian Non-Brahmins are elevated sky high. The origin stories of Non Brahmins go like — I spent so so time in close proximity to Tamil Brahmins and <insert> of a psychlc harm happened to me perpetrated by some Brahmin individuals. Now do you blame me for being so resentful ? The spurious “Kasi humiliation sambavam’ of Periyar himself is case in point. Such a weak and dubious story on which an entire century of hate hangs.
Lack of logic and reason
Here is typical response from a leading account @sujays.
If anyone would spit out an ad-hominem snark at “Avani Avittam” in a response to a narration, that should popup dozens of red flags all over the field. It is the clearest indication that the attitudes spring from a different place totally unrelated to social justice which is a civil issue. Even trying to subsume, drown out, and divert the valid claims of social justice. The Avani Avittam event ifself ought to be of no consequence to any one except the anti-Brahmin. Merely a unique custom takes place in any group. As Sartre said : “it isnt evil as much as it is unique”.
Regardless, one would expect rationalists and profuse readers and writers to be able to put together a proper tweet thread or a blog in English or Tamil. We are talking about highly educated and professional Dravidians here not my erstwhile Tamil sparring partners of ArakkarPeriyar, RajuBhaiDMK, IVedaalan etc.
Could this be the problem? The ideology itself cannot be articulated in a rational and civil manner. Only by slurs, smiles, insults, .. seeking to unsettle and unnerve.
What @shyamsek says is nothing new
The landed non Brahmin aristocracy who founded and fuel the Anti-Brahmin propaganda while at the same time exulting at the 100% pure Non Brahmin MLA in Tamilnadu need to be studied. To this group – prestige was tied to land. But that isnt the case anymore. Through sheer intensity of Anti-Brahmin tactics like thread cutting, continuous threats, insults to women, they did achieve one goal is to dispossess the Tamil Brahmin landowners. They moving on to greener pastures isnt the issue. The Anti-Brahmin propaganda is the issue.
The anti brahmin saturation hate propaganda along with implicit exclusion rules – from the DMK particularly and less so from the shadow party AIADMK – and unwritten rules about ‘அதிகாரப் பதவிகளில் இருந்து அப்புறப்படுத்துதல் (removal of Brahmins from authority positions) are not merely loose talk. Mr E.V.Ramaswamy( Periyar) himself wrote editorials complaining that dropping of caste names made it difficult for interview panels to spot and remove Tamil Brahmins. This does not apply to other so called oppressor castes. That is the magic of Dravidian ! They are cabinet ministers in DMK today and call Brahmins pejorative names as “nooliban”.
Irschik has written about this. Sedentariness was seen as high culture by the Non Brahmin elites. So dispossession would be seen as forcing a loss of culture. However this isnt true in the world. It is time the Non Brahmin elites particularly the Vellalas come to terms with modernity. New forms of wealth are held as securities and intellectual properties.
Where did you get the land – hey Brahmin?
This is floated by Drav elements in Twitter.
Well how did anyone come into possession of land. One has to admit that receiving a homestead from a King is one of the most legitimate forms of property acquisition. Whether it is for clan reasons, religious service , political advice, military help, status enhancement – it does not matter. This is the same logic of how did the Church come into possession of so much land in India, Or the Muslims, or Naidus, or the Mudaliars etc etc.
The bitter truth that Dravidian-Vellalas need to start facing is Tamizh Brahmins are the communities with the deepest and indisputable evidence of domicile. Imagine the audacity of the Dravidians to other and externalize the Tamizh Brahmin even in the face of concrete titles like the Velvikkudi (8th Cent) copper plates that no other community is demanded to produce. Amazing the distance we have lost to the Great Dravidian Lie. Dravidian Elites attempt fabricating a past does not help other than as a cheap stratagem. Illogical arguments such as ‘the Anthanars mentioned all over the Kural” are none but Vellalas are merely lies. Paraphrasing Douglas Murray – even if using sheer propaganda power Tamil society today collectively believes to be true what it knows to be a lie that will only have a severe demoralizing effect on the entire Tamil society.

TN Finance Minister Palanivel Thiagarajan reaches out to the spring of hate for support
Imagine being a small time independent and fearless woman journalist and then being called in public as “poison” and “vile” by the Finance Minister of Tamilnadu. Dayum !!
This is what Palanivel Thiagarajan ( @ptrmadurai ) the obnoxiously loud DMK Cabinet Minister of Tamilnadu did.
Outsiders will not understand that the dynamics of Tamilnadu Politics centre around the “Dravidian ideology” which is nothing but an adaptation of Anti-Semitism. The two people in this conversation are DR P Thiaga Rajan (The Finance Minister of Dravidian) and Mr SKP Karuna (owner of an Engineering college and a senior DMK member). SKP Karuna is the one who mainstreamed Nooliban – a portmanteau of Nool+Taliban. Where Nool in Tamil = “Thread” (Poonool/Janeyu) that Brahmins wear. These are from the upper most castes of Tamil country – PTR is a Mudaliar Pillai and SKP Karuna a Telugu Naidu. Each of their castes are the most privileged in Tamil land and have been known for treating the lower castes as worse than chattel without even the basic elements of humanity. Today Dravidian has enabled them to spit and park their crimes on Tamil Brahmins using hate propaganda and they find their own castemen over representing in all sectors including politics by aligning themselves with the oppressed Dalits and working castes.
You are see the sheer FORCE that is being brought to bear on poor Sandhya Ravishankar. Wild accusations of siding with Pollachi Rapists (why has DMK not thrown them all in jail, is she responsible). Hardly masculine and heroic for powerful mature Tamil-Dravidian men who have amassed power using saturation hate propaganda against Brahmins — to gang up against a young lady journalist? Calling her names like “poison” and “vile” in an effort to make her fall in line under Dravidian. Also notice the women journalists of The News Minute and others have abandoned her. Is it because they are Non-Brahmin women and the attackers are males from their clans ? The only other explanation is cowardice.
.. please follow Periyar advice
So why not tell us what “Periyar advice is” Dr Palanivel Thiaga Rajan. Seems mousey and sneaky to ‘wink-wink’ hint at that advice. Periyar adviced a lot of things 1) Murder Tamil brahmins 2) Burn their houses 3) Greet a Brahmin with ‘hi son of prostitute’ 4) take Tamil Brahmin women as wives 5) Non brahmins do exact opposite of what Tamil-Brahmin does 6) if you see brahmin and snake – kill brahmin first 7) Nonbrahmins are concubines sons of Tamil-brahmins .. 8) dont speak with shameless.
Which one is it? Is it 8) — then why not qualify it and say it like that. You arent stupid Sir. You are clever, educated at US Universities.
This type of Wittgenstein “dog whistling” Periyar is a way to disconcert and ruffle poor Sandhya and also serve as a warning to others. Its like a rowdy who lifts his baniyaan (T-Shirt) slightly and reveals the packed machete of Anti-Semitism (adapted in Tamil-Dravidian as Anti-Brahmin-ism).
P Thiagarajan taps the Dravidar Kazhagam for support against Malini
Outsiders have to first understand anti-Semitic like propaganda techniques of the Dravidar Kazhagam.
- The Dravidar Kazhagam claims to represent the entirety of Tamil Non-Brahmin interests. Perhaps this is not off the mark.
- For as long as it existed through its publications like Viduthalai has spread hatred, fear, grotesque caricatures of the Tamil Brahmin community.
- Issue warnings in the form of ‘notices’
- Exhibit hyper-vigilance traits – watching any sites of potent dissent.
- Really really hate and will go to any extent to prevent Tamil Brahmins from defending themselves.
For example these are publications from Dravidar Kazhagam – some written by Mr K. Veeramani the permanent leader of the Dravidar Kazhagam.
Here is a book cover with a grotesque Tamizh Brahmin representation. This is exactly the type of disgust inducing topes Julius Streicher deployed in this Der Sturmer. In Tamilnadu this is absolutely normal. In fact I saw many books with cover like this in the Chennai Book Fair 2023 – I even picked up a few.
It is to this type of power that Dr Palanivel Thiagarajan supplicates and roots his foundations on.
On the left side is a book cover “Yes Brahmin-ism needs to be hated” – the grotesque caricature of a Tamizh Brahmin down to the highly detailed palm leaf fan, fat, thick lips, missing tooth show the criminally of how the proposition if presented. Yes this person deserves to be hated.
This is an evil of a different sort. Such cartoons are a throwback to the Fips toons in Der Sturmer.
It is to this evil power that belongs to a past age that Dr Palanivel Thiagarajan is appealing to for support and receiving it.
Malini – Control your tongue நாவடக்க.. save your tongue நாகாக்க.
What kind of support is Mr K Veeramani of the Dravidar Kazhagam offering Dr PTR Thiagarajan
It is nothing but threats to Malini Parthasarathy of The Hindu.
The technique is FEIGNING Hurt. Like Shashi Tharoor, Malini Parthasarathy maybe opposed to me politically – but we are on the same plane of civility. Dravidian is not like that. It would be wrong to pretend otherwise. If someone disagrees with Palanivel Thiagarajan he will be simply dismissed as “Thread Ilk” or “Genetically bigoted”. You simply cannot have a discussion.
So here the leader of PTR is issuing a warning to Malini Parthasarathy.
“You are insulting those who fought for Tamilnadu as rabble rousers” – – no she didnt say that. She said this whole matter is about rabble rousing the “army of trolls online in 2023” not Annathurai in 1965. The entire outrage is feigned. A pretext “you insulted me in this manner, and hence I am justified now in attacking you back” – because I am looking for a pretext for violence. In words or action.
Once again, a symptom of evil is loss of logical structures. For the life of me I cant remember who said this – I think it was Velukkudi Krishnan. This is a spectacular insight.
Explain to us – why should Malini Parthasarathy or any other citizen be warned to control her tongue? While the Finance minister can run his? You Dravidians have demonstrated that you possess the media power to respond word for word.
One explanation is that there is actual criminal potential behind the aggressive words and the mens rea. That is the only way this “Warning” to Malini Parthasarathy makes any sense.
Again comes back to my previous posts. Dravidian is at its foundation a police matter.
Secondary hate propaganda in Tamil after Finance Minister PTR Thiagarajan trolls women journalists
The pattern in Tamil Dravidian is the same. The leader signals a target and on cue a Drav mass starts raining stones and casteist abuses mindlessly. An outlet for the criminal passion groomed by way of vile anti-Brahmin propaganda which is now old enough that parents have passed it to their children. It is always a mass exercise because you should not be able to pick out individual members from the crowd.
Currently the Tamilnadu Finance Minister is bullying and beating down an intrepid journalist. That is their way of disciplining. Usage of louts and “Kaali Payalung” rowdy elements to beat and wear down selected target. Then moving on to the next dissenter. This is a straight lift from Nazi propaganda technique. They pick the most vocal Jew and train all their criminal energy on beating him or her down. The Non-Brahmin-Elite Dravidian movement does this to this day. Even if a Tamizh Brahmin of no political power like Sumanth Raman, or a true achiever like Sridhar Vembu – they go after them. Targeted and relentless abuse. Steppe Parasite is a favorite slur for Sumanth Raman popularized by a leading intellectual Tamil social media personality.
In the AIADMK administration – they went very vulgarly and violently after Mrs Girija Vaidyanathan an IAS officer who was chief secy. Once she was replaced by a Non-Brahmin Vellala in the current admin peace was restored.
Leading up to Nazi power, the chief of Berlin Police was Bernhard Weiss – a Jew. Goebbels used the full power of propaganda platforms – this included his paper Der Angriffe and an army of stage speakers to defame and wear him down.
You can see this in action. Until the journalists fall in line and accept a position under the Dravidian hate platform – these journalists will be singled out and continue to be vilified, pestered, trolled and attacked by cowardly accounts. A few will scale up to actual physical crime and a few will stop at mere speech. It is a spectrum – but always an offence and a police matter. As I keep saying, Dravidian ideology when implemented is actually a police matter.
Example of trolling and targeted attacking from my favorite cluster.
Really ROFL Karikaala ? “Legacy of indigenous Tamil Dravidians” is a cowardly Dravidian Tamil male despite having implicit police assurances against nabbing hiding behind a shrub and throwing rocks at a courageous woman who has none of it ? Sweet pie chellam. . with your smiley. 🙂
Another tempo account @Sujays teasing her with pun on ‘clear’ in an effort to ruffle up, disconcert her and give up. The propaganda din is from the crowd but there is a dynamic to the crowd. It is made up of individuals with clear roles, some self selected some paid to do it. A very engaged and intellectual account but one which plays it down to be not noticable.
Being illogical shows the way to evil – the Pollachi case accusation of PTR
What we have here is the DMK Finance Minister PTR Thiagarajan sparring with an ordinary journalist. One who has the courage and strength of 1000 Dravidian-Tamil journalists. But notice the absence of logic.
DId you notice he hung the Pollachi Rapists on this peg? Does it make any sense ? A journalist provided a particular perspective. That should stop there. His party the DMK is in power will full majority and 100% Non-Brahmin upper caste power in all sectors. The Law Minister is from the same caste as the intellectual guru Suba Veerapandian. There is no way a Brahmin can influence him. What is preventing the government from arresting the rapists? The case is transferred to CBI – but that is again illogical. Why not demand the case back? Why not use the Dravidian propaganda machine to keep the spotlight and pressure on the case? Why the silence. Did the Brahmins cause it too?
More later..
Dravidian-Tamil accounts spew anti-Brahmin hate on Nirmala Sitharaman on Twitter over Budget 2023
Like Nazi Anti-Semitism “Dravidian-ism” is a complete worldview. Every event should be explained by or force fitted into this overarching Brahmin- Non-Brahmin(Dravidian) framework.
Capturing some of the budget gems in Tamil social media sphere.
One of the features of Dravidian-Tamil propaganda is its extreme vulgarity and pornographic depictions. Have you ever seen such a tweet in any other Indian state or society?
The Google Translation is of course comically wrong. Here is the correct translation.
One Khyber Pass Pig (referring to Subramanian Swamy a Tamizh Brahmin) has taken Human Excrement and slapped it on this Paapaathi’s face (a derogatory Dravidian-Tamil word for Tamizh Brahmin woman – referring to Nirmala)
Isnt this odd? Is this just a stray tweet? Or is this a propaganda account dedicated to maintain a TEMPO of such criminal tweets. Lets see
Notice immediately the BIO in Tamil. Also notice the extremely high number of Tweets. This is an account similar to @ArakkarPeriyar . There is something about this isnt it? Imagine a political movement that rests on such a level of propaganda. A criminal passion assured of immunity from prosecution. Encouraged.
Some more tweets from Dravidian-Tamil account who have always claimed to represent ALL Non-Brahmins in Tamilnadu 97%.
more.
Hate to translate this Tamil from a brand new minted account – unreal filth. Here goes for the record “Leave P. Chidambaram – does the Paapaathi (Nirmala) eat rice or latrine excreta ? If she has self respect from her own state she should stand for elections and win. If she does that she eats rice, but now she is eatign Kakkooos (Latrine) excreta?
Is this merely a Police matter?
I think it is. I know it is.
The movement turns on the state de-facto exempting criminal laws (IPC 153, 295, 505) along one direction. And in this exemption lies the power of the longevity of the Dravidian movement.
In 2024, the Dravidian ideology is adopted fully by the Congress Party under Rahul Gandhi. That is how the Congress ends. Even if Modi loses 2024, it will be Dravidian propaganda techniques that should get the credit.

Teasing out a Dravidian discourse
One of the toughest parts of being a discourse analyst in Tamilnadu is to actually ferret and tease out arguments from the Dravidian upper caste side. They have correctly concluded that the key to success is to be deceptive and keep under the radar. Always avoiding a list of demands to be placed on Brahmins and asks on themselves the Non-Brahmins.
I will find time to comment on the similarities between the Dravidian Movement and the Nazi Anti-Semitism. For now I found the following gem from Twitter. This has been my focus for the past several months.
Dr PTR Thiaga Rajan of the DMK made similar defence of the Dravidian “ideology” in an article on TheNewsMinute which I had countered at that time itself. But this one is gold. A classic non-Brahmnin upper caste perhaps a Vellala who is nervous about the world finding out about the elusive ‘ideology’.

These arguments are so uniquely evil and made with such seeming earnestness and virtuous anger. Angry that the Tamizh Brahmins now have the temerity to attempt to defend themselves by merely chronicling and telling the world.
Wordplays that you need to watch out for :
It isn’t as much the question if Tamizh Brahmins are like the European Jews but whether the Dravidian ideology is a mere adaptation of Nazi anti-Semitism. This refers to the ideology, the propaganda techniques, the exclusion principles, the persistent buzz of hate speech, the saturation propaganda, the statements of the very top of the Dravidian leadership, and most importantly the criminal passions cultivated in the Tamilian people by means of this. Speaking about the gas chambers etc is ignorant and made by people who do not understand the holocaust.
It isn’t about TamizhBrahmins , it is about the Dravidians.
The effort that is needed
I am still catching up on the issue. But I’d like to highlight the contribution of this person @ssaikuma
https://vedham.blogspot.com/2022/01/hateful-cartoons-of-brahmanas-in-tamizh.html
Chronicling is the key. It is tedious, but it is like practice.
The criminal ArakkarPeriyar s are the keys to Dravidian power
Under the Indian Penal Code sections IPCs 153, 295 wantonly vilifying any group or religion is a criminal offence. Here is how Free Speech jurisprudence bullying in India works :
- We are asked to ignore these provisions. We are taunted by New Delhi like so “How come you suddenly want checks on free speech Reality Check? Arent you the true liberal? ” “You suddenly dont like free speech because it is against you”.
- What they miss is the “Rule of Law” – where we can accept “All in or All out” – this forms the bedrock of democracy.
- There criminal provisions are in widespread use particularly in Tamilnadu. Hence even a minor remark on the other side will result in police and the Dravidian state power falling on your head. Some have spend months in prison under Goondas based on these criminal provisions.
- We are asked to bear with the following interpretation of these provisions : Think of it as a communal law like the SC/ST Act. Even though it isnt worded like that. It is the spirit of the law.
- In this crevices and gaps in Criminal Law is parked the secret of the Dravidian movements longevity and power. In a mere 50 years the Congress Party under Rahul Gandhi is singing praises for the same Mr EV Ramaswamy (Periyar) that Jawaharlal Nehru called a “senile lunatic”.
Once again let us focus on the Twitter account @arakkarperiyar – here is a quick profile.
- Like many Dravidian-Tamil players he is remarkably passionate. Profuse and restless does not even begin to describe these types. It is almost like a religious penance for them. Outside of religious zealotry it is rare to see this type of dedication and hard work.
- A very visceral graphic pornographic type of Tamizh Brahmin hatred can be noticed in Arakkar Periyar.
- He plays the “Vellala/Upper caste” game of social justice hijack via relentless tweeting in a rude, violent, aggressive tone. Particularly the two tactics — 1) portraying the ritual fees charged by Brahmins as the primary social injustice and 2) foregrounding Dalit in a superficial way.
- He is protected by the senior most layers and the “Network”. Probably using Tamil insiders he is able to get away from reporting. They are well organized as groups.
- A simple police warning could put the brakes on his mischief. Or he can be protected or avenged by further criminal elements on the ground. In any case, the next “ring” or the next “evolution” of hate speech always has to be actual crime.
- In a way India is Ondriyam (Federal) in the way even the United States is not. India does not have a Federal Police or a Federal Court. Another sweet gap which is exploited by criminal elements to the hilt. You can have a local police state that wins political power — and that political power than negotiates with the Central Government.
Vulgar and foul language but using the cover of Tamil and Valluvar
ArakkarPeriyar follows the classic Vellala path of ‘social justice hijack’. By getting in front and saturating the medium with “Look at the Tamizh Brahmins who are doing your rituals and stealing your money and rice and offerings” As if this is the social injustice the oppressed and the dispossessed should be worried about first. A complete illogical hoax. Think about it this – if dispossession and oppression is the primary issue then the Vellala-Dravidians should be glad that the Brahmins “sadangu porukkis” (those who scrounge at ritual events) are able to scam the rich guys a bit. Others should do it too. See? This is the progressive take. Have you ever seen a Peter Sandu Leftist Dravidian ever take this most commonsensical line? Sweet lord..
Fact of the matter that anyone with an ounce of common sense and knowledge of Tamil society will know – the entire “Ritual superiority issue of Tamizh Brahmins” is of zero interest to the vast majority of Tamils and only of trivial interest even to the Vellalas themselves. Arguably the payoff to the Velalla-Chettiar-Mudaliar-Naidu axis based on Brahmin proximity is loaded in favour of the V axis. For every rupee of ritual fee paid they got back 10 rupees in social capital. That was the system in place after demise of real monarchy in Tamil lands and the nobles tried to imitate the king.
Back to Arakkar Periyar. Here are his interactions today. He has done this nonstop for years now.
This represents a classical Dravidian elite caste grooming of the Vanniyar community. The goal is to disciple them to Dravidian coalition. Observe the foul language and how he is able to stay on Twitter using the Tamil exception and the compromised Tamil moderation team inside Twitter, Inc.
The Director who is a Hindutva leaning goes : “All castes have a nature? Arakkar Periyar pushes this “Hey Jatti Thief – Kshatriya castes (ref to Vanniar) nature is to send their queens to do Pooja for Tamizh Brahmins..” This is a common trope pushed by Periyar himself many times. That Tamil and Malayalee kings used to send their wives to be serviced by Tamizh Brahmins (Paapaans).
In the next tweet – Arakkar Periyar goes. “In the Agni Pot (reference to Vanniyar) they roasted their testicles and in the sweat they were born – the scums (saniyans)..“
To take on Dravidian, you have to recognize it is a quasi military landscape. You cannot do it by triggering them over “Tamilakam”. It is about confronting the few dozen ideological zealots. Those who will not stop. The enabling environment created for zealots where you would expect a true democratic state to subject them to criminal law provisions already in force. In that respect, Dravidian is at its most basic element a police matter.
It is the air that is poisoned.
The ideologue is nothing but the exhaust pipe that emits the fumes.
Go after the exhaust pipes.
Who is Dravidian ? Who is Tamilian?
So why does the political leadership in Tamilnadu insist on calling the citizens of Tamilnadu as Dravidians, rather than merely Tamilians ? There is a growing political Tamil nationalist movement that keeps raising this question.
On the face of it – the term “Dravidian” has meaning only when backed by the force of political propaganda. The word in practical use only denotes Brahmins from Tamil lands who were settled in northern territories. At best, it is a language family that is absolutely not traceable to race in the following sense. You cannot use it to certify that a a Balija Naidu or a Chettiar or a Tuluva Vellalar or any group is a Dravidian race or Dravidian stock today.
So it is odd, isnt it? A identity called Dravidian forced down the throat of Tamil people that is of no value except to obfuscate the Tamil identity.
No there is more. It is linked to the very foundation of the Dravidian movement. A criminal passion to spite and exclude the Tamil Brahmins.
Meet “The Professor”
Let us hear from the senior most intellectuals of the Dravidian movement themselves.
The person in the picture below is Mr K. Anbazhagan fondly known as Perasiriyar “The Professor”. Outsiders and Non-Tamils have little chance of knowing him but he is one of the giants of the Dravidian movement. He is named Perasiriyar “The Professor” to denote the intellectual nature of this work. He is also from the elite Vellala Mudaliar caste, I mention the caste here to denote that there are no valid social justice grievances from his group, hence any Brahmin hatred has to be of a pristine nature.
In a meeting to commemorate The Professor, the chief of the Dravidian Kazhagam – the parent of the DMK recounted his answer to the question
Who is a Dravidian ? Who is a Tamilian?
கேள்வி: எதற்காக தமிழ்நாட்டில் தமிழர்களாகிய நாம் ‘திராவிடர் கழகம்‘ என்று பெயர் வைக்க வேண்டும்? ‘தமிழர்’ என்னும் பெயருடன் இருக்கக் கூடாதா? என்று கேட்டார்கள்.
நான் அவர்களுக்குச் சொன்ன விளக்கம் இதுதான்.
1. பார்ப்பனரை விலக்காத பெயர் ‘தமிழன்’,
பார்ப்பனரை விலக்கிய பெயர் ‘திராவிடன்’ என்பதுதான்!
2. தமிழர் என்று கூறிக் கொள்ளுவதில் நான் பெருமைப்படுகிறேன். திராவிடர் என்பதால் நான் உரிமை பெறுகிறேன்.
3. உண்மையாகவே நாம், ‘தமிழர்’ என்று சொல்லும் பொழுது நமக்குக் கிடைக்காத உரிமையும், பெருமையும் ‘திராவிடர்’ என்று சொல்லுகிறபொழுது நமக்குக் கிடைக்கிறது என்பதை நாம் மறந்துவிடக் கூடாது.
4. நான் திராவிடன் என்று சொல்கிறபொழுது நான் ஆரியத்தோடு ஒட்டாது, இன்னொரு இனத்தைச் சேர்ந்தவன் என்று பிரித்துக் காட்டுகிற அந்த ஆற்றல் தமிழ் மொழிக்கு உண்டு. தமிழ் மொழி பேசுகிற வேறு இனத்தவராகவும் இருக்கலாம்.
Translation
Question : Why should we Tamilians living in Tamilnadu should call ourselves “Dravidians” ? Is it wrong to call ourselves Tamilians?
The Professor Answers :
- The word Dravidian excludes the “Tamil Brahmins” (Paapaans) but the word Tamilians does not exclude the Paapaan.
- The reasons (2) (3) (4) are vapid, meaningless, alliterative and contestable. (2) says we are proud to say Tamils but we get our rights as Dravidians. Wut? (3) is cruft and opposing to the previous one says In reality the pride and rights we get as Dravidians we do not get as Dravidians, (4) When I say I am Dravidian, I signal I am against Aryans and dont mix with them.
Hence the real “money shot” is the first reason.
Let me see if I got it right. The Dravidian elite (an alliance of three uppermost non-Tamil-Brahmin castes) have willingly forced a contrived identity upon 70 million people merely to exclude Tamil Brahmins.
No one can question Dravidian and live to tell the tale
In the same speech the leader the parent of DMK, Mr K. Veeramani says this proudly
He says “To this date, there is no one who has questioned Dravidian cadre – and has escaped”. This is the very definition of fascist totalitarianism. To accomplish this once again I get back to the primary power of Dravidians. A certain criminal “mens” that is able to constantly intimidate with rude vulgarity and shows slyly that Police power that derives from Rule of Law and Constitution is merely a function of Dravidian-ism.
Odds with what Periyar himself says
Periyar himself has given a definition of Dravidian in Viduthalai. The highlighted text says “Dravidian is nothing but a euphemism for Shudra”. This is super odd ? Why would the Scheduled Castes accept the forced Shudra identity merely to exclude the Brahmin? In any case, the Shudra itself is a fake group that has zero relevance in Tamil lands. That is for another day.
