The poet Bharati only called upon the Tamils, which is an ethnic concept, not Hindus, which is a religious concept, to stand up. The two things are quite different! To compare Bharati, a sublime poet like Tagore to Modi, a justifier of mass murder and encounter killings, is nothing short of scandalous! Does Raman want religious wars to break out all over the world? George Bush, a religious fundamentalist, has caused mass killings. KS Subramanian.
