"ending Brahminical hegemony,"In India hegemony is with Vote-Lordism as it was with Land-Lordism in the past .The author himself had got the answer said in one of his write -ups in this site where it was said that a political party consulted the clergy of a religion for votes.That buries one man one vote philosophy. and brings into play VOTE-LORDISM R.Ponnambalam
"To all those then who talk about ending Brahminical hegemony, my advice is: Get the Brahmins on your side,:NO! Take social reformers like E.V.Ramaswamy Naicker on your side.This is what the so called Greats of india failed to do in time possibly intentionally ;in stead they derided him.How much people like Mr.M.V Kamath had supported social movements of people like E.V.Ramaswamy Naicker Brahminism is not the be all and end all of all the societal ills R.Ponnambalam.

I can see it is Dalit hegemony in India.They are having cake and eating also.I have number of friends who took full advantage as Dalit,got a promotion undeserved,got their kids in prestigious colleges and when caught for corruption or raping charges take shelter as victimized as being dalit
is either ignorant about or willingly ignores the fact that the primary weapon that Namboodiripad used to raze down the centuries old system of hierarchies in Kerala was comprehensive land reforms !!!
Without that measure, Kerala would not have reached anywhere near its current position of overarching primacy among Indian states in human development or in egalitarianism !
The breaking down of the tenacious hold of brahmins (as well as the well off segments among the Nair community) was only a result of such land reforms, not the cause !
Brahminism is just a camouflage used by so called dalits who r doing atrocities on Brahmins n r taking cover by crying victim. this division of Hindus going on since transfer of power fm Britishers to their chamcha Nehru.

Any one who takes the name of a CASTE and tell people that that particular caste is to blame for the predicament of our lives, take that person into custody and HANG HIM PUBLICLY.
Any one who takes to the street in the name of caste should be hanged by law. Unless we have this kind of law, things won't better.

After moderate success during Gujrat election, Horn is blown for 2019. It may be planned to dissent & divide United Hindus. We have to decide our fate.
How to defeat BOGUS oppression claims and PAMPERING of certain classes by political parties for votes ?
How to CRUSH any violence with iron fist so much so that any scum bag neta would be scared to take stage to incite violence ?
How to crush the divisive ,gossip mongering, trivialized, trash media with an iron fist so that dogs who foment violence by publishing inflammatory content will never dare again to do so.
