I think this is bull shit propaganda by the BJP propaganda machine. Right from its manifesto it has been generating unveriable lies. No government organization would put a cross and a crescent without at least a Hindu symbol.

No Media or secular party even mentioned it anywhere The recent Take over of Chidambaram temple by non-hindus and aestheists on Tamilnadu shocks our conscience. In many ways the ‘dravadian (by logical corollary ‘non indian’) heavily campaign against Hinduism and Hindu Symbols bears resemblance to the actions of the Taliban against non-islamic symbols (Bamiyan Buddha statues) in Afghanistan. Under international outcry even the Talibans halted their destruction of the statues, but in India the same set of politicians are now keeping quite. Needless to say every attack on Hinduism and a section of the Hindu society (dubiously called as ‘upper caste’) is packaged as social justice! Sp great is the fear of ‘caste, votebanks, that even parties professing support fo Hindutva are refusing to consider the just and fair rights of the Unreserved Class Hindus. Things have gone so far that none of them are even willing to consider the Unreserved Class Hindus as Citizens
Dear Northies/non-tamils, Please understand ground-realities, and history of lankan tamils, before spewing any unthought comments. Plz dont rely on half-baked/BIASED information to mould ur thoughts.
Kashmir Issue: Where people have all rights as any common indian citizen and even more rights (muslim law and no one except kashmire can buy land in kashmir). But, with pakistan backing, some people are asking for homeland just because they have muslim majority.
Srilankan Tamil Issue: Srilankan tamils don't have equal rights as any sinhalese. They protested to get equal rights in gandhiyan way initially and after army started killing and raping tamils, they took weapon to defend themselves. They need either equal rights to live in srilanka or a seperate homeland.

(for those who do not know prabhakaran is a methodist xian, dhanu who killed rajiv gandhi was a xian too)
