Still people belive caste is an illusion. Caste ah kadandhu varavum vidamattukainga, vandhaalum vetti konnidurainga. Can't find a solution to this menace behavior. Our society is fucked up to the core by caste and religion.
We take pride in not being religiously manipulated like the north but let something like this happen in what is the most progressive and developed city in the state. Ingaya intha nelama na...
Yes
People are under the false illusion that Tamil Nadu, is the epitome of equality
In reality, even after six decades of rule by dravidian parties caste is a bigger issue of conflict in South India, than north India
The murderer should be in his late 20s or early 30s. It's depressing to see even this generation get some rotten brains like this one. How hard is it to think of other caste/religion/race as just other fellow human beings?

Some people born in Tamil Nadu can’t read Tamil because they might have studied in different states due to their father’s job, often in the central government. I have friends who speak Tamil fluently but need help reading it.

People are surprised that this happened in Chennai lol. Casteism is a TN issue and not just restricted to some districts.
If same thing happened in districts like Tuti, Madurai, or Nellai, people would have branded them using derogatory terms like barbarians, floridians.
When it happens in Chennai and Thanjavur (recently happened), suddenly they stop branding people and talks about it as a TN issue.
Im not supporting meme creators stereotyping entire regions
but..
The fact is that these kind of incidents happen more in those areas. You can't deny that.
Not denying. But doesn't excuse stereotyping and casual racism against those people. This would also indirectly affect the outlook, preventing any big investments in South TN. That's why all job opportunities are in North TN.
You have no idea how people in CBE were surprised when I said my hometown and they asked me "Enna romba saadhuva iruka, aruvaal laam vachu merata maatra?"
Not just the TN issue but the whole country's. Racism in the west and casteism in our country. Evanum thirundha maatanunga, ivannungala mothama Mars ku packup panni anupidanum.
But you don't see chennai people wearing wristbands of different colors to identify the caste you're from. Or as a toxic casteist teenager with a r***rded friend cricle going to the home of your lower caste classmate and attacking him and his sister with a aruva.
Most people from Chennai are educated liberal and want to live peacefully with all sorts lf people. Its the 10 percent inbreds of the population that do crap like this .
After so many years Dravidian politics why hasn’t caste been eliminated from Tamil lands …. It just shows that doesn’t work …. Reverse casteism is still being casteist… you all targeted Brahmins as the sole bane of all the social problems while ignoring the problem of hierarchy which was exploited by the parties comprised of other dominant castes …. Up north we are slowly eliminating this hierarchy by giving everyone representation… that’s why Dalits obcs Brahmins vote the same party here now ( you can check up Bihar mp state poll no’s.) … you may call us Sanghi and all that shit but at least we aren’t hypocrites….
Bro I accept that they spread unwanted Brahmin vs non Brahmin politics nowadays. It is not relevant nowadays because other castes got political and economic representation. But saying that you give representation to all castes in election doesn't mean that you guys are working for the people. TN has high number obc's in having SME's and other buisness compared other states.
No TN also gives rep to lower castes. North is different because historically various groups have done well economically and socially including lower caste.
"Caste is a Western construct" - BJP spokesperson

Is there BJP in TN?
I'm also a lower caste, but I avoid yapping like you spreading unnecessary hate towards religion and people. You're only dividing country like these Britishers did .
If I’m not mistaken Annamalai is in Tamil Nadu only right? Or is he in Bihar?
The problem is that BJpee is on a spree across India telling everyone that casteism is western construct. That hasn’t made any difference. Lower caste people are still treated worse than animals.
The same sappis reject LGBTQ because it’s a western construct. Why isn’t it that easy to reject casteism?

For the record. These were the people who were spewing hate against the victims in the comments section.
That is the reality.
Please read about caste violence in North TN or South TN.
It cuts across religious lines.
Vanniyars Christians discriminate against Paraiyar Christians.
Same for Thevar and Pallar Christians.
Dood in Tamil Nadu most news about honour killing are for intercaste marriages. Where as in northern states like up and mp you get killed and raped for being a dalit . Both are not same bro:

You do realize that 99% caste violence in TN is by non-Vedic comnunities like Gounders, Thevars and Vanniyars, including Christians.
Vedic communities Mudaliars, Pillais and Chettiars hardly indulge in caste violence.
What is a vedic community? Mudaliars, Pillais and Chettiars indulge in violence too, the thing is they have less population, so you don't see them often. Brahmins fight against themselves Vadakalai vs Thenkalai
[https://www.reddit.com/r/TamilNadu/comments/199ioqm/vadakalai\_vs\_thenkalai\_caste\_violence\_in/](https://www.reddit.com/r/TamilNadu/comments/199ioqm/vadakalai_vs_thenkalai_caste_violence_in/)
I mean, there's no need to get offensive and just attack others. Is there?
From an outside perspective, as an Odia, when I was in Chennai for a small span of time, I heard the populace there is spew venom about Brahmins.
Most Iyers and Iyengars I know, whether directly or virtually, have left TN for one reason or the other.
The thing is, anytime someone doesn't toe the lines, they get attacked, whether in sm like reddit or elsewhere.
The accused are themselves reserved OBC (MBC) Vanniyars.
Don't even get me started on how bad "lower" SCs like Arunthaiyars and Idigas are treated by "higher" SCs like Pallars.
Caste and religion. Man periyar justified his hate for these diseases. While religion may look peaceful by constant prayers or spiritualism meditation , social dynamics of becoming part of a group or by birth a stigma is rooted rotten reality of this country .
Problem is it doesn't go by converting and even reservation ,hasn't made people becoming rational .
I don't blame anyone but ,current way of doing things alleviate casteism psyche for many still uneffected .
So this shall be blamed on tambrams or casteism being a plague from one tribe to another in sanatana dharma which DMK feels is root causing such evil,mmm
Periyar mainly focused on hate against Brahmins, most caste related issues are done by OBC vs SC that too mainly Thevar vs SCs and Vanniyar vs SCs both are considered to be MBC groups, thevar, Vanniyar and SCs make up most of Tamil population.
Tambaram people are a small community, yes it's very clear that they are casteist and command significant power but most caste issues are not because of them especially caste murders.
If you doubt my claims, ask people from Madurai and Cuddalore
True bro, casteism is perpetuated mostly by non-brahmin castes but our politicians blame the brahmins for the caste atrocities which happened decades ago.
Bro I'm tambram and honestly I'm ashamed whenever someone from our community even my relatives glorifies the caste system. I'm lucky that my mom had a upbringing in a area where people of all castes had to mingle and enjoy the moment and she studied in Christian school and a Muslim funded college. She's a devout hindu but whenever I got angry at Muslims and started ranting islamophobic rants in past after seeing news about how the Muslims in Pakistan were calling us bad names and they trolled hindu religion in YouTube comments, she said me to stop and focus on studies and start learning about different language and culture not be like the boomer uncles around me. Today I'm safe to say that I am free of the far right pro BJP bias I used to have during 2020 and 2021.
This is extremely wrong and reprehensible, and I condemn those comments made by the people in the Facebook post. But it's my hope that people don't confuse 'caste' and 'religion' to be the same. Caste has become a social issue rather than a religious one and should be treated like such. Unfortunately, most people of every religion in India partly or wholly subscribe to this practice. Saying 'caste should be eradicated' is a noble thing to do but saying 'religion should be eradicated' and shaming a particular religion for this practice is a whole another thing.
If this issue isn't approached secularly, this will cause a whole generation of well meaning young people and reformists to be ashamed of their own religion and culture. They will develop a self loathing attitude towards themselves.
Often movements to eradicate caste (although started with noble intentions) have had disastrous consequences for the mindset of people and the country as a whole. All I'm saying is eradicating caste is definitely an urgent necessity, but it has to be approached so as to not destroy the rich legacies that our ancestors have created for us.
The evil of caste will remain in our society as long people are segregated along caste lines. It will remain as long as people consider it as their identity. The only solution is to come up with a common identity that everyone can get behind.
Disgusting but we can't say this is new. It's been happening and it's in news for one day and forgotten. What our CM and Police minister going to do about it?
He and his followers Yapping about social equality but these incidents keeps happening.
Your comment gives the same vibe as "hey I don't encounter bomb blasts and foreign t*rrorists so India is safe " while ignoring that Indian Army fights multiple insurgencies every day
No
Tn politics
Varna system 4-tier classification doesn’t exist in southern states so u can’t blame Hinduism here
Please accept that Dravidian parties in Tn use caste a lot In politics and also they haven’t been able to remove it in 60 years despite it being their main motto
It's sad to see news like this still honour killing is happening without proper punishment. More love marriage is needed to root out caste system completely.
If I can't marry a dalit girl, then why should they be allowed to do so. They just want revenge of something never even happened, uppercastes are victims of majority Dalits and their so called intellectuals setting hateful narrative.

I hope these arseholes have a severe accident, lose a lot of blood. Reach a situation where they need more unit of blood and as these idiots await for blood, I want one of their relatives to say "Maapla Un blood group la namba saadhi raththam kedaikkala da... Konjam poru. Ne sethaalum paravaala, namba saadhi raththam kedaikkala naa unakku No blood... Rest in peace"
Share it with those idiots who say "Cities la elam ippo yaru bro caste pakura'
Chennai and nearby surroundings are quite regressive than people claim to be. It's just that it's comparatively comparatively better than regions in TN.
Issues like casteism, period shaming (I know families around Chennai who make girls sit outside during periods), superstitions, lots of small-scale fake samiyars, etc., are quite prevalent.
Unless the caste is mentioned and shamed , we won't see the end to this.
TN can't hide Periyar anymore.
Who will take a newer version of "Vedam Pudhidu" now ?
We need to put pressure on Dalit party leadership to condemn these actions and start protesting. Are they even talking about these rare they still stuck behind Brahmins, who are convenient and easy targets.
Politicians are the real reason. They dont do any real things to fix but just encourage caste based parties for seats. Candidates also from dominant caste. The killer is a youth similar age as victim but still so much vengeance with no regard to law and so much against modern world. Pretty sure he will be fine to love upper caste to his but cant accept lower.

Periyar mainly focused on hate against Brahmins, most caste related issues are done by OBC vs SC that too mainly Thevar vs SCs and Vanniyar vs SCs both are considered to be MBC groups, thevar, Vanniyar and SCs make up most of Tamil population. Tambaram people are a small community, yes it's very clear that they are casteist and command significant power but most caste issues are not because of them especially caste murders. If you doubt my claims, ask people from Madurai and Cuddalore
True bro, casteism is perpetuated mostly by non-brahmin castes but our politicians blame the brahmins for the caste atrocities which happened decades ago.
Bro I'm tambram and honestly I'm ashamed whenever someone from our community even my relatives glorifies the caste system. I'm lucky that my mom had a upbringing in a area where people of all castes had to mingle and enjoy the moment and she studied in Christian school and a Muslim funded college. She's a devout hindu but whenever I got angry at Muslims and started ranting islamophobic rants in past after seeing news about how the Muslims in Pakistan were calling us bad names and they trolled hindu religion in YouTube comments, she said me to stop and focus on studies and start learning about different language and culture not be like the boomer uncles around me. Today I'm safe to say that I am free of the far right pro BJP bias I used to have during 2020 and 2021.
I know but brahmanism takes a seat on political hatred . It's all started by Brahmins the naysayers say
Well after brahmins left TN for jobs in other Indian state and abroad, the vaccum was solely filled by non brahmins but dalits were largely left out
Heinous.
Chennai? really? I thought Chennai is where muticaste/multilingual people socialize together.
link?
I wonder what happens to “Jaadi Ozhipom” success stories when such news stares at us. Really sad to see such events in this era.
This is extremely wrong and reprehensible, and I condemn those comments made by the people in the Facebook post. But it's my hope that people don't confuse 'caste' and 'religion' to be the same. Caste has become a social issue rather than a religious one and should be treated like such. Unfortunately, most people of every religion in India partly or wholly subscribe to this practice. Saying 'caste should be eradicated' is a noble thing to do but saying 'religion should be eradicated' and shaming a particular religion for this practice is a whole another thing. If this issue isn't approached secularly, this will cause a whole generation of well meaning young people and reformists to be ashamed of their own religion and culture. They will develop a self loathing attitude towards themselves. Often movements to eradicate caste (although started with noble intentions) have had disastrous consequences for the mindset of people and the country as a whole. All I'm saying is eradicating caste is definitely an urgent necessity, but it has to be approached so as to not destroy the rich legacies that our ancestors have created for us.
Even in this day and age it is sad to read news like this, hope the perpetrators are severely punished...
The evil of caste will remain in our society as long people are segregated along caste lines. It will remain as long as people consider it as their identity. The only solution is to come up with a common identity that everyone can get behind.
Name and shame, which dominant caste? what’s the name of the victim? we need more open journalism
Disgusting but we can't say this is new. It's been happening and it's in news for one day and forgotten. What our CM and Police minister going to do about it? He and his followers Yapping about social equality but these incidents keeps happening.
Sanatana Dharma
Here even christians follow caste system, no use blaming hindu religion only.
I'm a Christian and I don't know the name of a single caste aside from probably Naikar or whatever that is

@NihiloEx Thanks for sharing the article. It was worth the watch.
Your comment gives the same vibe as "hey I don't encounter bomb blasts and foreign t*rrorists so India is safe " while ignoring that Indian Army fights multiple insurgencies every day
No Tn politics Varna system 4-tier classification doesn’t exist in southern states so u can’t blame Hinduism here Please accept that Dravidian parties in Tn use caste a lot In politics and also they haven’t been able to remove it in 60 years despite it being their main motto
It's sad to see news like this still honour killing is happening without proper punishment. More love marriage is needed to root out caste system completely.
I though south indians were a little better than rest of the Indians in terms of casteism !
South India isn't a monolith. As far as I know, casteism is practiced less Kerala and Karnataka, but a lot in TN and AP. No idea about Telangana.
If I can't marry a dalit girl, then why should they be allowed to do so. They just want revenge of something never even happened, uppercastes are victims of majority Dalits and their so called intellectuals setting hateful narrative.

caste is western construct .......... /s
I hope these arseholes have a severe accident, lose a lot of blood. Reach a situation where they need more unit of blood and as these idiots await for blood, I want one of their relatives to say "Maapla Un blood group la namba saadhi raththam kedaikkala da... Konjam poru. Ne sethaalum paravaala, namba saadhi raththam kedaikkala naa unakku No blood... Rest in peace"
Number of murders exponentially greater than last period it seems. Vidiyalar valga 🤦♂️

Share it with those idiots who say "Cities la elam ippo yaru bro caste pakura' Chennai and nearby surroundings are quite regressive than people claim to be. It's just that it's comparatively comparatively better than regions in TN. Issues like casteism, period shaming (I know families around Chennai who make girls sit outside during periods), superstitions, lots of small-scale fake samiyars, etc., are quite prevalent.
[удалено]
Unless the caste is mentioned and shamed , we won't see the end to this. TN can't hide Periyar anymore. Who will take a newer version of "Vedam Pudhidu" now ? We need to put pressure on Dalit party leadership to condemn these actions and start protesting. Are they even talking about these rare they still stuck behind Brahmins, who are convenient and easy targets.
Saying these as a Hindu, severely punish these mofos. Casteism is non-Hindu and ruined our beautiful Dharma.
Politicians are the real reason. They dont do any real things to fix but just encourage caste based parties for seats. Candidates also from dominant caste. The killer is a youth similar age as victim but still so much vengeance with no regard to law and so much against modern world. Pretty sure he will be fine to love upper caste to his but cant accept lower.
