Following Madras Music Academy’s announcement of conferring ‘Sangita Kalanidhi’ award to controversial singer TM Krishna, Carnatic vocalist duo Ranjani and Gayatri announced their decision to withdraw from participating in the Music Academy’s conference slated for 2024, This independent decision taken by the due Ranjani-Gayatri cited their reason for withdrawal. The stance taken by Carnatic musician duo Ranjani Gayatri led to a massive meltdown in the leftist ecosystem.

In their official statement released on the social media platform X, the duo, Ranjani Gayatri, criticized TM Krishna for causing significant harm to the Carnatic music community by disrespecting its sentiments and revered figures like Tyagaraja and MS Subbulakshmi. They accused Krishna of undermining the spirituality inherent in Carnatic music and attempting to instill shame in being a Carnatic musician. Moreover, they condemned his admiration for EV Ramasamy Naicker, also known as ‘Periyar,’ highlighting Periyar’s advocacy for violence against Brahmins, derogatory treatment of women, and promotion of vulgar language in social discourse. Ranjani Gayatri affirmed their dedication to upholding a value system that respects art, artists, and Carnatic music’s cultural heritage. They asserted that participating in events involving Krishna would compromise these values.

The major controversy arose when the statements made by the duo significantly impacted the Dravidian Stocks “Its dangerous to overlook Mr TM Krishna’s glorification of a figure like EVR who

  1. Openly proposed a genocide of ‘brahmins’
  2. Repeatedly called/abused every woman of this community with vile profanity
  3. Relentlessly worked to normalize filthy language in social discourse”

D-Stocks swiftly intervened and made statements positively about EV Ramasamy Naicker, without possessing adequate knowledge about him, “Where did Periyar propose a genocide of Brahmins? – Please cite instances of Periyar using profanity against women? You are so petty, so jealous, that you’ll even taken up the Goebbels enterprise of fake facts manufacture than just COPING that @tmkrishnawas honoured.”

Immediately netizens took this as challenge to break the Periyarists claim and shared threads of instances where EV Ramasamy Naicker (EVR) called for genocide of Brahmins and used profanity against women.

On 28 March 1971, during a wedding ceremony in Madurai, EVR made a statement that, “From now on our women should cut their hair short up to their shoulders. Should wear shirt. Should wear Lungi. Our women are spending half of their time in make-up. Why do they wear make-up? besides, the only reason is to make others (men) take a look at them, the makeup worn by our women arouses desires in others. They are dressing up provocatively such that their body parts are visible. How does this not arouse others?”

In another instance, during a widely celebrated speech revered by followers of Periyarists and D-Stocks, EVR crudely asserted that women visit temples to be groped, “Husbands usually don’t go to temple, but at least to have fun they go. The women who are tied (Married) can go only during festival season. Only by going there, she can rub with four men; If she stays at home ‘Husband will threaten asking ‘what work; If she goes there… ‘Come’ will say the husband; She will say ‘Can’t come they are crushing’; He will say ‘Come, come through them’, She gets all that pleasure only when she is taken to the temple; He is habituated to this because everyone else’s wife is also subject to the same, hence no one will ridicule it. Only because of this, she is holding her life. If we make different arrangements for this, women would not go to temples.”

In another incident, EVR made a direct comparison between Brahmins and Jews, suggesting that Brahmins should be forcibly removed from India. This statement was made in 1938, coinciding with the rise of persecution against Jews in Germany. It is evident that EVR’s intention behind this comparison was to incite prejudice and discrimination against Brahmins. Additionally, he expressed the belief that in order to eliminate caste in India, it was necessary to eradicate God, religion, scriptures, and Brahmins. This rhetoric raises concerns about the promotion of genocide-like sentiments.

EVR directly compared TBs to Jews & suggested for their forced emigration out of India. This was in 1938, when atrocities against Jews were beginning to take root in Germany.Its clear what was his intent behind the call for more research comparing Jews… pic.twitter.com/lnMEznZrwK— Tamil Labs 2.0 (@labstamil) March 21, 2024

In another instance, during his speech in Karaikudi, EVR openly encouraged non-Brahmins to kill Brahmins. EVR said, “They are celebrating festival it seems , he is celebrating Soora Samhaaram, what is it? He (Soorapathman the demon) was someone who said there is no god, they killed him, therefore now we can kill those buggers… that won’t be wrong (if we kill them) may be legally it will be wrong, that legal offence and all are bullshit we cant be bothered that it is legally wrong. We have to come to the conclusion, wherever we see a temple we must go inside and break all the idols inside, wherever we find Paapan (Brahmins) we must kill and destroy him. He has done like this to us, after all he (Tamil Brahmin) has done things like this only to come to this position. We must also do to the him, whatever he has done, What, a few of us have to die If one tamil dies for one paapan, means only three of us will die out of every hundreds, balance 94% will still remain.”  

The individuals posing these inquiries are well acquainted with the responses beforehand. These seemingly “innocent” inquiries serve merely as a guise, masking pretentiousness and insincerity aimed at preserving the reputation of their ideological mentor, EVR. Presenting a plethora of sources will not sway their stance. When ideology blinds the mind, discerning the truth becomes an arduous task. Alternatively, they may deliberately overlook the truth to advance their own self-serving agenda.
