Kamatchipuri Adheenam lashes out at DMK for denigrating Kandha Puranam and using it for party’s publicity

It has become a trend to slander of religious beliefs of the Hindus. Despite the devotees, spiritual leaders, Hindu organizations and political parties like the BJP and Indu Makkal Katchi condemning such incidents, the tirade against one particular faith continues to happen with the DK, DMK, VCK and Communist groups leaving no opportunity to spew hatred against Hindus and Hindu beliefs.

In yet another incident of DMK denigrating Hindu faith, the party has sought publicity by slandering the Kandapurana. The verse ‘‛வான்முகில் வழாதுபெய்க, மலிவளம் சுரக்க மன்னர் கோன்முறை அரசு செய்க, குறைவிலாது உயிர்கள் வாழ்க, நான்மறை அறங்கள் ஓங்க, நற்றவம் வேள்வி மல்க மேன்மைகொள் சைவ நீதி விளங்குக உலகமெல்லாம்” is featured in the Kanda Puranam. The DMK has distorted it in praise and appreciation of late leader M Karunanidhi and present DMK chief MK Stalin, for the the purpose of party’s publicity.

In light of this, Kamatchipuri Aadeenam Sreesivalingeswara Swamy has strongly condemned the improper usage of the Kandha Puranam by a DMK MLA for publicity. , “The Kandapurana song is like the national anthem, a song that the that is sung in devotion for world welfare. The lyrics released by the political party denigrate the song that people sing in devotion. Political parties should stick to focusing only on their principles. Acts that denigrate religious beliefs must be abandoned. If such acts continue, there will be dire consequences.”

Just a few months back, a rabid YouTube channel named Karuppar Koottam run by a group of ‘Periyarists’ with links to the DMK had denigrated Kandha Sashti Kavasam, a devotional hymn dedicated to Hindu God Murugan.

Several temple idols have been found to be demolished and vandalised in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh. A clay statue of Goddess Sita was destroyed in the Sitarama Mandir located in Vijayawada. A case has been registered over this incident and investigation by the Andhra police is underway. Several party leaders, especially that of the TDP and BJP rushed to the spot and vehemently protested asking for the vandals to be prosecuted.

The police are also investigating the involvement of the mob and doubted whether the clay statue could have potentially been destroyed by pests or the wind. TDP leader Pattabhi Ram, meanwhile, sought for a proper inquiry after this claim was put forward by the police.

Just a few days before, a similar incident had been reported at the Ramatheertham Temple in Vijayanagaram. It is to be noted that the police had found the lock to be intact in the temple.

Meanwhile, reports of another temple at Kurnool getting vandalised surfaced. The idols atop the gopuram in the Anjaneya Swami temple located 4 kms away from Sajjala Gudem were found to have been damaged.

He said that some patches of the idols were damaged during the recent electrification works. He urged people not to believe rumours of vandalism.

‘Stalin can never become CM’: MK Alagiri shreds Stalin to pieces at Madurai meet

MK Alagiri addressed his supporters in Madurai on Sunday, where he said, “This meeting was the first step to combat the conspirators and traitors. I turned Madurai, the stronghold of the MGR, into the stronghold of the DMK. When Vaiko left the DMK, not a single person left the party.”

The estranged brother of present DMK chief M.K. Stalin said that his brother had betrayed him and added that he will ensure Stalin never becomes Chief Minister.

“Stalin can never become Chief Minister. I and my supporters will ensure that.” he said.

“They had expelled me because posters welcoming me for the General Committee were put up? Aren’t you sticking posters for yourself? You have been sticking posters for yourself as ‘future CM’. But you have not been able to become CM. You have printed posters as ‘future CM’ to be put up every now and then. It is not at all going to happen”, Alagiri  ripped apart Stalin.

Explaining as to why he was going to contest in the Thirumangalam constituency, he said, “Money is not the reason for Thirumangalam’s election victory. It is because of our hard work. Stalin and the Maran brothers asked me to work on the Thirumangalam election. If Thirumangalam fails, then the DMK regime will be out of hand. I am still one of you.”

He added that he will soon make an announcement about his political stance as well as news of forming a new party. He beseeched the audience to support him, no matter what his decision is to be. It is to be noted that there had been speculations of Alagiri forming an alliance with Rajini if he were to start a political party.

In a tragically comic incident, people who were promised money by DMK cadres to attend the party’s Gram Sabha meet were left high and dry with just tea and vadai.

Residents of Malaiyadipatti near Rajapalayam in Virudhunagar district were made to attend the Gram Sabha meet presided by DMK MLA S. Thangapandian and District Secretary Ramachandran. They were promised money and other gifts for which tokens were also issued. Believing their words, people attended the meeting.

However, they were just given a single cup of tea and vadai at the end of the meeting. Reportedly, some of them were not even given the vadai. 

Sensing trouble, the DMK organizers fled the scene with empty vessels who were chased by dismayed people including children.

In a shocking turn of events, used condoms and fake currency notes with abusive scribbles have been found in the hundi (donation boxes) of three Hindu temples in Mangaluru, Karnataka. Two of these temples — Bhagavan Shree Babbuswamy Kshetra and Bhagavan Shree Daivaraja Kordabbu Daivasthana — are situated in the city’s Attavara area.

Pictures of the fake currency notes were shared on social media by concerned citizens. One ₹200 fake currency note had a crucifix scribbled on it and the face of Mahatma Gandhi on the note was disfigured. Another ₹20 fake currency note had a hateful message scribbled on it in Kannada. “Muslims and pig-like Hindus should be beaten up and killed. Lord Jesus Christ is the only God worthy of worship”, the message read.

The staff at the temple and religious leaders have expressed their anger over the incident, and have demanded that the culprits be caught at the earliest. In a press meet, MLA Vedavyas Kamath condemned the incident and said that strict proceedings will be initiated against the perpetrators. He also added that he has instructed the authorities to nab the culprits as soon as possible.

This incident comes only days after the city’s police arrested two men believed to be responsible for the graffiti hailing terror outfits Lashkar-e-Toiba and Taliban and seeking their help to eliminate ‘Sanghis’ and ‘Manuvadis’. Vandalism of Hindu temples in Andhra Pradesh is also continuing unabated, with new such events coming to light almost every day.

The Drugs Controller General of India (DGCI) approved for restricted use in emergency situations two vaccines – indigenous COVAXIN brought out by Bharat Biotech and Oxford Institute’s Covishield which is being developed by Pune-based Serum Institute.

DGCI VG Somani said at a media briefing that “we will never approve anything if there is slightest of safety concern.”

“The vaccines are 110% safe. Some side effects like mild fever, pain & allergy are common for every vaccine”, the  DGCI said while rubbishing the claims of vaccines making people impotent.

The DGCI also said that Covishield was found to be 70.42% effective and Bharat Biotech’s Covaxin was “safe and provides a robust immune response”.

In a statement issued by Bharat Biotech, it noted that 23,000 volunteers have been received for phase 3 trials and was progressing towards achieving the goal of 26,000 participants. The statement also said that it is the largest phase 3 efficacy trial ever conducted for any vaccine in the country.

However, Congress MP from Thiruvananthapuram Dr. Shashi Tharoor in a tweet claimed that COVAXIN has not yet had phase 3 trials and stoked fears that the approval for the vaccine could be dangerous.

It is to be noted that human clinical trials of Bharat Biotech’s COVAXIN began in mid November. The data on phase 3 trials conducted so far has already been submitted to DGCI.
