It was an interesting weekend. Mr.Karunanidhi’s ability to perform somersaults even at 84 needs to be appreciated
‘There is no proof that some one like Rama existed - The question of demolishing Ramar Sethu does not arise - Ravana is better than Rama - But Rama never existed, the issue is not about Rama but about the Sethu Project - Lets not drag Rama into the picture - Why drag poor Rama into these controversies, let him be left alone - There is no proof that Rama existed’
Did some one understand the above?? I definitely have not…
How is a strike going to help things?? Other than paralyzing the lives of crores of people and depriving millions of their livelihood. Will closing of shops help faster dredging?
One of my colleagues had an apt point – If Rama is a myth and hence Ramar Sethu can be demolished, then even Silappadikaram ( A Tamil Classic) is also a myth. Why make hue and cry when Kannagi (one of the central characters) statue is removed from the beach??
Secondly, if strike is a solution to the problem, why did not Kalaignar TV (patronized by Mr.Karunanidhi’s DMK) go off air on the day of the strike?? Does it mean its employees can come to work on that day, relay normal programmes, earn crores of revenue thru’ advertisements and sponsorships but others have to suffer??
I don’t think people can get away with these mediocre mindsets now as they did 2 or 3 decades back. Literacy levels have gone up and people will not be mesmerized by emotional blackmails.

Very true....
karunanidhi does seems to make perfect sommersault even at 84!
But what else can be expected from a veteran politician like him....things would have been more ugly had public given in to his rhetorics...
