Hell E. V. Ramaswamy embodied all that's wrong with our sick Indian politics. Why the hell didn't he raise a voice against Muslim and Christian fundamentalism when he was against all religions per se and pray, why the hell did he have to ask for all castes to be brought in temples as priests when he was a goddam atheist?

With due respect to you bro, please understand the double-standards he followed: victimizing an entire community when there were a few black sheep and insulting one of the greatest religions the world has ever known. This would happen only in India, frankly all this hypocrisy pisses me off...

If EV Ramaswamy was not born in Tamilnadu, we the underclass and unprivalaged people will be still doing our family business i.e. cutting hair, cattle farming, scavaging etc. He was want that there should not be any discrmination against anybody with regard to caste, religion. That is why even though he was rich and came from upper caste and he still uplifted the people of TN. Gandhi preaches but does not do any good to down trodden people whereas EVR did what he said. Great leader and visionary. Long live Periyar. Even though i do not agree in all his teachings in toto. bcoz i am not athesit. txs
