“Lord Ram Made Merry With 1000s Of Women, He Lacked Courage & Committed Suicide,” Says DK Member Uma Ilakkiya

At an event held a few weeks ago, before the Pran Prathishta ceremony in Ayodhya, the Dravidian ideologues were working hard in the background to use every opportunity possible to badmouth the ceremony and the temple. This was also an opportunity to bash Hindus and Brahmins alike to serve their agenda of not letting the Bharatiya Janata Party make inroads in Tamil Nadu.

Speaking at an event, Deputy General Secretary of the Dravidar Kazhagam Thamizhar Peravai (Dravida Kazhagam’s Tamil Council), Uma Ilakkiya who is also an anchor with DMK mouthpiece Kalaignar Seithigal, spoke at length about the Ram Mandir, BJP and RSS while also taking potshots at Brahmins.

About Appropriating Pongal

She first started with how the BJP was trying to appropriate Pongal festival and then claimed that soon the temples and schools will not be theirs and how BJP wants to establish Hindurashtra along with the RSS. She said, “They changed Pongal to Sankaranti. They are prescribing auspicious times for it now, you’ll read in the papers tomorrow about this. We celebrate it as a gratitude to the sun, so ideally we must make the Pongal when the sun rises. We have been doing this all these years. What is the need for an auspicious time for it? They plan to keep us entangled in religion and superstitions. We have preserved this Pongal festival somehow. Now even this will not be ours, nothing will be ours going forward. Schools will not be ours, courts are already like how Periyar said even if we bring in the laws, the ones sitting in courts will be Brahmins. Even temples will leave our hands. When the BJP gang speaks about the HR&CE department, no one realises the seriousness of it. They speak about it especially when the DMK is in power in the state. That’s because when the DMK is in power, the HR&CE department functions perfectly. They just create issues out of nothing just to go against the state and want to dismiss the government. They started this within 10 days of Stalin taking over as CM – about dismissing the government.

She further went on to add “We should understand their goal. Although we are in power, we have to do things with fear today. Why are we talking about 2024? Because even the BJP and RSS are looking at the 2024 elections only. The RSS completes 100 years in 2025 and at that time they will announce that this country is a Hindurashtra, a Ram Rajya – how UP is today, the kind of government that is in power, the same religious fanatical government is what they envision for the entire country. That’s why they keep talking of 25 years in the future. After 2024 (elections), India will not remain India. They are not accepting India as a Union or a country, they are saying this is not India but Bharat. That’s why the TN CM keeps mentioning the Prime Minister as the Indian Prime Minister repeatedly to remind him. That this is not Bharat but India, the Indian Union, we take lessons for them on this every time they come to TN. Modi says he feels energised whenever he visits TN, we are giving him that energy. Everything that they do is cheating. He says he speaks about Tamil wherever he goes, about Tamil culture, he lied about it when he came to Trichy, the Indian Union’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi. But what are they doing in reality? The exact opposite of it.Every time we have to fight for a holiday for Pongal in central government offices.”

Establishing Ram Rajya = Brahmin Rajya

She further said, “We have to break all these, we have to protect our children from this. Whether they are planning to bring in a Ram Rajya or a Hindurashtra, it is going to be a Brahmin Rajya. Today everyone is praising about Ayodhya temple, which the government gave funds and Modi was at the helm. But do you know what problem is arising? Shankaracharyas are saying they will not attend the ceremony because Modi is going to touch the idol and do the Prathishta at Ayodhya. One of them even posted a video saying Modi did not live with his wife, so how can he participate in the ceremony? We will not permit that, the north Indian swamijis are raising the battle flag. said. Rama also did not live together with his wife. Why do they not let things be as both (Modi and Bhagwan Ram)are matching in this aspect? They have decided that they are going to inaugurate the temple, so let someone do it. Shankaracharyas are upholding the rules as per their religion and it has to do with Brahmin and non-brahmin.”

President Is Powerless

Speaking about the President, Uma said, “So today what is the state of the President? They did not permit her inside the new Parliament building, they did not invite her to the temple inauguration. Then why have you made her the President? Simply, for a representation, for namesake. She was denied permission to attend the new parliament building inauguration because she is from a Scheduled Tribe community and also because she is a widow. Leave all this, the President did not open her mouth when the women in Manipur were paraded like that during the riots. That is a position of authority, why did you not condemn it? That is the level at which the BJP-RSS power has locked up her mouth from saying anything. The President herself is in such a situation, so what will happen to the people if they come back to power? The 2024 election is a do-or-die situation. BJP should not be mentioned anywhere in the country – we must bring about that situation. The way they are mixing religion and politics and making fools out of people, we must chase them out of the political scene completely. BJP is a communal organisation, a religious fundamentalist organisation. The 2024 elections are the only way we can do this.”

Akshadai Is Vaaikiarisi For Entire Nation

She continued saying, “This BJP-RSS religious fanatic group wants to destroy our culture and send women back to the kitchens and the bedrooms. They are going to achieve this by using Ayodhya as a symbol for this. If you build a temple, those who want to visit will come, this is what we do in our state. Who goes from door to door and gives invitations, there is an instruction to do things as well. They say we have to celebrate it like Deepavali, we know why and how to celebrate the festival. There are foolish stories about his as well – about Narakasuran. Now they are asking us to celebrate the ceremony like Deepavali. The Prime Minister doesn’t open his mouth for anything else but for this he did. Along with the invitation they have given a few grains of rice mixed with turmeric powder. I immediately thought of something – were they planning to give “vaaikiarisi” (final offering of rice grains to the mortal remains of a person before the funeral) to the entire country? For a temple being inaugurated there (in Ayodhya), why are they giving this yellow rice here? In the end that is all there is for you – this is what Modi and Amit Shah are trying to say symbolically.”. She further said, “Even today 2 magicians are fooling India – one is Modi and the other is Amit Shah. They are a great pair, they are doing the same atrocities that they did when they were in Gujarat but at a national level.”

Attacking The Ram Mandir

Talking about the Ram Mandir, she said this event was being used to make the people even more superstitious. She said, “Already the north is soaked in religion and the people there cannot think beyond it. They are using this for their politics. To use religion for politics began from Savarkar, he was an atheist – a better atheist than us. When he died in 1966, he wrote a will. Cremate my body in an electric crematorium without any rituals. But he instituted a concept called Hindutva because he made religion into politics and politics into religion and these people are continuing that. If Savarkar was alive today, he would not have participated in all this ceremony at Ayodhya. All he wanted to do was convert the country into a Hindutva country so he did that. They are doing this through the Ayodhya Ram Mandir. Our Tamil race is very forward, you can see that from the Keeladi excavations.”

She continued, “The temple is for a child Rama, they have built this temple on a baseless lie that he was born there and even got a court order for it. What will be the address of this temple? Ram temple or Ramjanmabhoomi, c/o Babri Masjid, Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh. You are building the temple where the masjid once existed. When we say we want to name our children after a leader, we do it because we want the child to be like the leader. Some women want to give birth on that particular day, it is so startling. Why do they want to be associated with Rama? What kind of an example is he?”

Rama Was Characterless

Uma continued her tirade against Lord Rama and said, “As per Valmiki Ramayanam, Rama was said to have lived with several thousands of women in the palace, making merry with drinks. Are you going to give him as an example for your children? He had no courage to live so he committed suicide by drowning in the Sarayu river with his people. Are you going to bring up your children with him as an example? What kind of foolishness is this? He doubted his own wife and sent her to the forest, what will you show as an example of this Ram? He was a murderer – he killed Vaali by hiding himself, and he beheaded Sambhukan when he was meditating without even enquiring the reason, is this kind of a person an idol for your children? This BJP-RSS is taking the country to such a bad state. They are not going to stop with this, they have started in Mathura already – wherever there is a mosque, they are establishing that there was a temple before that.”
