The Hindu Munnani has strongly criticized and mocked the Tamil Nadu government for playing childish politics with Hindu religious rights, accusing it of systematically suppressing Hindu worship and faith. The latest controversy erupted after Dindigul city police erased wall advertisements promoting a spiritual conference organized by the Abhirami Amman Devotee Trust Group, scheduled for 27 April 2025. The police reportedly removed the advertisements in secrecy at night illegaly, sparking outrage among Hindu organizations.

In response, Hindu Munnani President Kadeswara Subramaniam ridiculed the ruling DMK government, asking, “Will the marriage stop if you hide the comb?”—implying that erasing advertisements would not prevent the spiritual event from taking place. He demanded immediate action against the officials responsible for this act, warning that failure to do so would result in a massive protest by Hindu organizations.
In an official statement, Subramaniam accused the Tamil Nadu government of using unlawful tactics to suppress Hindu religious rights and spiritual gatherings. He pointed out that, “The Tamil Nadu government is employing all kind of unlawful methods to suppress the legitimate worship rights of Hindus and spiritual festivals. On behalf of the Dindigul Sri Abhirami Amman Devotee Trust Group, various social organizations in Dindigul are coming together to organize a “Spiritual Conference to Hail Mother Abhirami” on 27 April. At this conference, Maharashtra Governor His Excellency C. P. Radhakrishnan, along with abbots and monks, will deliver spiritual discourses. The event also feature yajna sacrifices and other religious ceremonies. To promote the event, wall advertisements were put up across Dindigul city on behalf of the Sri Abhirami Amman Devotee Trust Group. However, the Dindigul District Police erased these advertisements whitewashing them overnight, without anyone’s knowledge. This act of the Dindigul District Police is shameful and humiliating. Even the ordinary daily activities of Hindus are being stopped and suppressed by the police every day in Tamil Nadu. Additionally, the government displayed its malice by erasing the names of the Honorable Governor and revered saints from these advertisements. What wrongdoing did the government find in organizing a spiritual conference for Hindus? Why such hostility towards Hindus? The Hindu Munnani strongly condemns this repression against Hindus. Action should be taken against the officials responsible for this heinous act. If corrective measures are not taken, we strongly assert that the Hindu Munnani will mobilize all communities and devotional organizations in Dindigul to launch a large-scale protest. We also wish to state clearly that If you hide the comb, the marriage will not stop.Through this statement, the Hindu Munnani expresses that no one can stop the Hindu uprising and Hindu unity that is emerging in a Sattvik manner in Tamil Nadu.”
