Voices for egalitarian society
Keywords:
Brahmanism, discrimination, egalitarian, social reform, untouchability, upliftmentAbstract
Periyar E. V. Ramasami Naicker is a social reformer far ahead of his times in Tamil Nadu. He wanted men and women to live with dignity and have equal opportunity to develop their faculties. To secure this, he was against all types of discrimination and advocated social justice and a rational outlook. His voices are echoed for an egalitarian and casteless society where equality of status of all the people including women is ensured. Dravidians are inspired by him, and they emulate his courage, which came not from bravery but from a deep commitment to Self-Respect, which gained Periyar the world’s adulation.
