Tamilnadu has been witnessing the reassuring scenes of prominent persons of several Hindu communities promptly closing ranks whenever Hindu society is targetted, as in the case of Kandha Shashti Kavasam vilification by pro DMK Karuppar Koottam. Earlier during protests over Andal vilification by Cine Lyricist and DMK honcho Vairamuthu, the cross section of Hindu denominations hit the roads.
Whenever such attempts are afoot to consolidate Hindus as a single force, alarm bells ring in anti Hindu political parties. They make it a point to to keep Hindus divided either by masterminding new issues or digging the old
wounds.
The case in point is the “alarm” by Thirumavalavan of VCK that if Ram Mandir construction is completed, Hindu consolidation would become formidable.
In another recent incident, while police is investing killing of 2 young men near Arakkonam, vested interests from the camp of “champions of the downtrodden” rushed to depict it as clash between Hindu communities.
Take this hurried attempt to stoke embers of inter community hate: A recent article in the The new Indian Express by a left leaning writer was conspicuous by its out of turn mention of Keezhvenmani killings that happened 52 years ago. The knee-jerk reaction by the anti Hindu coterie was palpably evident.
A casteist film maker also sought to play a vital role in fanning social divide by projecting (in his recent Tamil film ‘Karnan’) one section of Hindu society as a warring group and by pitting one community against another.
The question is why Hindu unity is anathema to the anti-national groups. What else but the fact that a united Hindu society is a roadblock for the agenda of anti-national forces, namely to divide our country?

At this juncture, it would be appropriate to recall some of Dr B R Ambedkar’s views against divisive agenda:
** Dr B R Ambedkar vehemently opposed the bogus “Aryan Invasion Theory”. He categorically and rightfully consigned it to dustbin.
** As an individual who was personally affected badly because of the malady called “untouchability” , he was never seen as supporting anti-Hindu forces and their poisonous views.
** In fact, he encouraged efforts taken by various social organizations to unite and consolidate Hindus.
** He advised the oppressed class brethren to be cautious of the nefarious design of the foreign proselytizing religions to divide Hindus. He said that both Islam and Christianity de-nationalised their followers and alienated them from Bharatheeya cultural roots.
** After he announced his decision to convert in 1936, for almost 20 years, Dr B R Ambedkar was frequently offered huge monetary gains by the foreign religions to get him converted. He negated all those offers and finally
embraced Buddhism, which is a branch of Sanatana Dharma, just a few months before his death in 1956.

Within a decade hence, from late 1960s, the Dravidian parties and their fringe groups started selectively quoting (or rather misquoting) Dr B R Ambedkar with a view to divide Hindus and keep the caste differences alive.
The Justice Party, which is the origin of various Dravidian parties, was formed with the sole purpose of keeping the Hindus divided so that their pay masters (British) can peacefully spread Christianity.
No wonder the political parties which are claiming to be offshoots of Justice Party, continue to pursue the same agenda even today at the behest of their pay masters (Christian Missionaries and Islamic Jihadis). Hence, their
screams over the successful Hindu consolidation abounds.
