In the interaction, while addressing about the recent controversy of Karupar Kootam’s perception on Lord Muruga’s Kandha Sashti Kavasam, Raja said that nothing in this world is “holy” and people should state opinion against opinion instead of demanding leaders to react. “If there is an opinion against your ideology, involve in an argument. If they say there is no god, say that there is god. If they say Godmen are bad, counter the statement by saying that he is good. Let’s talk. I don’t understand.” said Raja in the interaction who goes on to explain that there is nothing is “holy”.

After referring a popular Tamil saying on God’s existence, Raja says “Nothing in this world is “pure”. A man stating his opinion on “Kandha Sashti Kavasam”. Many people opposed his opinion. I myself saw a spiritual person saying that nothing wrong in a man asking Lord Muruga to save his bums when there are chances for it to get infected by cancer. That is an opinion. Questioning God’s role in saving the bums is an opinion. One should confront an opinion with another. Claiming that Hindu religion got hurt because of it and demanding Stalin and Raja to react has no use. We have already reacted” he said in the interaction.

அந்தமான் சிறையிலிருந்து மன்னிப்பு கடிதங்கள் எழுதிய வீரர்கள் வாழ்ந்த நாட்டில், தீண்டத்தகாதவராய் பிறந்து, திகார் சிறையிலிருந்து தான் குற்றமற்றவர் என்று தானே வாதாடி வென்ற ஒருவரின் பிறப்பு பற்றி பேசுவதுதான் உங்கள் அரசியல் நாகரீகம் என்றால், அந்த ஆதிக்க அரசியலை தமிழர்கள் புறக்கனிப்போம் https://t.co/vMnXh0iQDH

Guys, I expect our friends across India to make this an India level issue;BJP's spokie in TN in a reference to A Raja (DMK's Dalit MP) says A Raja is behaving in such & such manner since A Raja is of low birth in an apparent reference to A Raja belonging to the Dalit community. https://t.co/t50ZxTZ9zH
