A Youtube Channel named Karuppar Koottam, run by a group of Dravida Kazhagam (DK) and Communist ideologues and sympathizers of Dravida Munnetra Kazahagam (DMK) and Communist Party of India parties has been putting out vile videos abusing Hindu gods.
In one of the videos, they abuse Lord Murugan revered in Tamil Nadu as the Tamil God, by making derogatory references to Kandhasashti Kavasam, a hymn dedicated to Lord Muruga that echoes in every Hindu’s home and temples in Tamil Nadu.
You scumbag. I promise on Lord Murugan you will pay for this. #DMKAgainstHindus https://t.co/UdoR1TgH3x

Karuppar Koottam channel has been posting videos abusing Hindu Gods, Hindus and Brahmins for a long time under the garb of ‘rationalism’. In the series titled “Aabasa Puranam” (Porn Puranam), members of the Karuppar Kootam (especially Surendhar Natarajan) use vulgar language and and trash-talk Hindu Gods like Murugan, Saraswathi, Brahma, etc. They claim that this is how it is written in Puranams and hence the name “Aabasa Puranam”.
In one of the video titled “Saraswathi Puranam” , Surendar Natarajan, a member of the Karuppar Kootam says “You say Saraswathi sits in the tongue of Brahma.. If we ask, where will Saraswathi go when she needs to pee or has a bad stomach.. they don’t have an answer. You told she is in the tongue, shouldn’t you also say you also have built a toilet in Brahma’s mouth?”

In the above video Surendran wearing a T-shirt with E.V.Ramasamy Naicker’s picture, describes an encounter between Sage Nara and Lord Krishna and says that Lord Krishna was ‘busy doing samacharam’ with women of the households wherever Sage Narada went and that finally Sage Narada asks for having sex with Lord Krishna.
Surendar Natarajan is a Periyarist and had campaigned for the DMK in previous elections.
In another video, Surendar Natarajan while talking about Ramayana makes vile references to Tamil Sage Poet Kambar, Lord Rama, Goddess Sita and Lord Hanuman.

Sirpi Rajan, another member of the Karuppar Kootam gang in a video showing magic tricks, uses Hindu children and mocks at their beliefs. Sirpi Rajan even goes on to cut the religious thread tied in the hand of a boy saying that if the God’s thread is more powerful, the scissors will break.
While performing a trick he asks the children “Have you seen Abhishegam done in temples? What do you do at that time?” to which the children respond “We pray”. He further asks “What does the Pujari do when the God is eating?” and children reply “They close the screen”. Sirpi Rajan says “You should ask them. You are bathing the God with the screen open and closing it when God is eating!” He also says “You know why the Poojari closes the screen? He eats the food kept for the God stealthily!”
He instigates children to ask their parents “Why is the lady God showing herself bathing but eats in private?”
It is alleged that the channel enjoys the patronage of Haseef Mohamed, Senior Correspondent of News18 Tamil Nadu and other journalists associated with Centre of Media Persons for Change (CMPC). Members belonging to DK, DMK, VCK and the Communist parties are frequent guests hosted by the channel.
Sundaravalli, a member and spokesperson of Communist Party of India (Marxist) and Surendar Natarajan discuss about these Puranas and spews venoms against Hindu Gods. She claims to have read the Saiva Thirumurais (hymns dedicated to Lord Shiva) and says that the Thirumurais have porn in them. “Asinga asingama irukum, kevalam kevalama irukun!” (They are so gross and disgusting). She says that Puranas are the epitome of porn. At a later point in the video, Sundaravalli says that their primary mission is to break Hindus by attacking the Hindu scriptures.
Fearing the rising public outrage, Karuppar Kootam has hidden/take down their “Aabasa Puranangal” videos.
Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi chief Thol. Thirumavalavan, DK ideologue Suba Veerapandian are just some of the others who have expressed their support for Karuppar Koottam after Maridhas took them head on in the video about News 18 Tamil Nadu and their alleged links with Karuppar Koottam.

Like Karuppar Koottam, there are several other channels like – Karuppar Desam, U2 Brutus, Kulukkai, etc where several EVR (addressed by followers as Periyar) ideologues and Communists indulge in abusing Hindu Gods. Several people have reported and lodged a complaint with Youtube but the streaming service has not taken any action against these channels for abuse, obscene, hurting religious sentiments and inciting hatred and violence.
@YouTubeIndia Please delete “Karuppar Kootam” YouTube channel, as they post abusive content against the Hindu Community. We Hindus strongly condemn them and the parties that stand behind them.@BJP4TamilNadu @CTR_Nirmalkumar @CMOTamilNadu @rsprasad @RSSorg @KTRaghavanBJP pic.twitter.com/Lm6o5cKJVv

It was around December I tweeted and reported about various tamil YouTube channels indulging in blatantly anti Hindu narrative. Top among them were Karuppar Kootam, Kulukkai and U2Brutus. Lodged a complaint with YouTube, no response. They continue with their diatribe ..
