1. creating brahmin-non brahmin divide

2. creating north-south divide with anti-hindi policy

3. due to 1 and 2, divide whole of india



after all this, people still have the guile to call him great and saying that he was not against brahmins.

Misinterpretation of the life of periyar is common and thats why the author give a clear cut picture of periyar



his achievement is

1. Protecting non-brahmin from the supression of brahmin and getting equal rights to everybody

2. Giving a way to mother tongue speakers (either tamil or other language of their own) to get the same oppourtunity as of hindi speaking people

3. as both above points are cleared no need for the third one

yes u mite be rite, as on the ground Tn is the only state with 60% reservation which puts a big qn mark on Merit
most upper class brahmins (Iyer/iyengars)from south simply emigrated out of Tn Most fleeing to USA , Matunga in mumbai or Delhi to work with some Government agency mostly Accountant Generals office etc
secondly who is this Mr Gnana Rajasekharan and how did he get his gnyan, did he get educated and into IAS using reservation and quota system?
