“Deepavali Celebration: Overhyped?”: Puthiya Thalaimurai Cancels Debate Event With Anti-Hindu Topic After Social Media Backlash

Puthiya Thalaimurai news channel abruptly canceled a debate on Deepavali celebration titled “Have no idea about it vs. Give too much hype. ” This debate topic, just before the popular Hindu festival, sparked widespread criticism from Hindus, who accused the channel of promoting anti-Hindu sentiments and pandering to the ruling party’s Dravidianist agenda.

Puthiya Thalaimurai & Dravidianist Narratives

Puthiya Thalaimurai has often been in the news (pun intended) for its bizarre reporting, especially when speaking the truth. They have aided the ruling dispensation in peddling Dravidian myths and propaganda among the masses.

Here is yet another instance that proves their allegiance to the anti-Hindu forces in the state.

Puthiya Thalaimurai came up with a debate topic, “Deepavali Celebration – Have no idea about it vs Give too much hype.”

The debate event was scheduled for 27 October 2024 at 2 PM at their Ekkatuthangal office premises. However, a netizen who called to inquire about more details about the event discovered that the programme had been cancelled.

When the announcement for the event had been made, several Hindus raised valid points in the comments section. Some questioned whether such debate topics would be seen during Christmas or Ramzan.

Some others were worried about it coinciding with the Tamizhaga Vettri Kazhagam’s conference!

In total, the event has been cancelled and can be considered a small win for Hindus.
