Addressing the media, Kadeswara Subramaniam cited the recent Murugan Devotees Conference held in Madurai as a major success. However, he alleged that the event drew backlash from Communist and left-wing groups, who launched verbal attacks and derogatory statements against Lord Murugan in areas like Dindigul. According to him, those who questioned such remarks faced physical attacks, and authorities failed to intervene or take appropriate action.
The protestors also raised concerns about alleged attempts to rename sacred Hindu sites. Subramaniam claimed that proposals had been made to rename Thiruparankundram as “Sikandar Malai” and convert Chenni Malai into a Christian site. He warned that such actions were stirring unrest among Hindus and accused the government of remaining passive in the face of such developments.
He further criticized the Tamil Nadu government for deteriorating law and order. He alleged that the police force was being misused under political pressure, mentioning incidents of arrests without FIRs and improper custodial behavior in rural areas. “The intelligence system is failing, crimes go unpunished while the innocent are targeted,” he said.
Subramaniam also accused the Minister of Hindu Religious and Charitable Endowments of obstructing the Murugan conference by influencing police actions and limiting access to the venue. Despite alleged efforts to block the event, he claimed that lakhs of devotees managed to attend. He stated that, over 5 lakh people recited the Kanda Sashti Kavasam, 5 crore viewers watched the event online, and more than 1 million devotees visited the site within days after court permission was granted.
He warned that if the government continues to ignore Hindu sentiments, Murugan devotees will respond decisively in the future. “The unity among Hindus is rapidly strengthening, and by 2026, there will be a political shift that will not tolerate anti-Hindu narratives,” he declared.
Subramaniam also took a dig at Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, suggesting that the state was being run by various internal factions and that even Stalin’s statements lacked clarity or direction. He criticized as disorganized governance and rising communal tensions.
The protest concluded with slogans condemning campaigns against Hindu beliefs. Several senior Hindu Munnani leaders, including State Secretary Senthil Kumar and district-level functionaries, participated in the demonstration.
