Satyameva Jayathe: Jaya Jaya Sankara – Hara Hara Sankara

(Published in E-Touch Family Magazine - May 2016 issue)

While Sankararaman murder occurred in Kanchipuram Varadharaja Perumal Temple premises on 3rd September 2004, the alleged assault of auditor Radhakrishnan, his wife Jayashree and assistant Krishnan happened on   20th September 2002 and in both these incidents, police booked both Jayendra Saraswati and Vijendra Saraswati, the seers of the Kanchi Mutt and were also arrested and put them behind bars. Along with them many were accused and proceeded by the Tamilnadu Police.

 Both the cases were initiated by Jayalalithaa, when she was the Chief Minister of Tamilnadu. It was opined that the arrest of the Hindu seers was seen as a political mileage to improve her secular image to reach out to Muslim, Christian and Dalit Voters. This is one ingenious way of appeasement vote bank politics. This highly vindictive and malicious acts of Jayalalithaa – using – rather misusing blatantly the government machineries  were quite evident from day one, when one goes through the proceedings of these cases and threats perceptions of many witnesses. Let not E-Touch go into details, as everything are quite available – if any one wants to verify and learn the details thereof.

E-Touch wants to bring to the notice of our readers that following the arrest of the seers, former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, former president R. Venkataraman and leaders from different political parties held a protest in New Delhi condemning the arrest. R. Venkataraman was identified by the political pundits as Jayalalithaa’s advisor and in that background, his spontaneous anger towards Jayalalithaa’s action needed to be looked into. How much he might have wounded in his mind needed no emphasis and equally Atal Bihar Vajpayee. ‘Power corrupts and Absolute power corrupts absolutely’ fit very much to our Honourable Chief Minister of Tamilnadu Selvi J.Jayalalithaa. Arrogant Attitudes towards people and policy seem to be Jayalalithaa’s Waterloo any time in the near future, unless she changes her tracks.

It is a great relief for the Kanchi Seers and others who were set free and acquitted  from all charges in respect of both the cases and equally so for E-Touch as well. E-Touch wants to share its feelings that Hindus – especially Brahmins had miserably failed our Seers at the time of their turmoil to raise up to the occasion in protest in Tamilnadu in a passive – but effective manner, when the Seers were arrested unjustly  - as it was proved by the Court of Law now.
