1. Go to this link for complete details http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shambuka
The oldest mention of Shambuka occurs in the Ramayana of Valmiki, in the last book of the epic Uttara-kanda. After Lord Rama returns to Ayodhya and is crowned the king of Ayodhya, the death of a child occurs in the kingdom[1]. He is told that calamities such as this occur when Dharma is not followed in a kingdom. Rama tries to find out the reason and comes to know that a person of the Shudra jati, called Shambuka is performing penance which he is not supposed to do according to the Varna system of rules prevailing in that period[2]. He is executed, by beheading, personally by Rama[3]
The place where Shambuka was beheaded is identified as the hill of Ramtek, near Nagpur in Maharashtra.[4]
2. Killing of Vali "The Vanara King" from behind, like a coward
3. Doubting his wife Sita even after she underwent the Agni Pariksha

Uttar Kanda is not part of Orignial Ramayana. It could have been written by one Tamilinan like you. Regarding Killing Vali, it was a punishment to Vali. At that time, any person, who stole his brothers wife was awarded Death punishment, which is even existence in Muslim Countries even now. Rama being a representative of King, awareded the punishment. Rama never doubted his wife Sita. If you read Original Ramayana (Valmikis, not a tamil aethist Ramayana), you would realise it. He banished her to maintain the High Standards of a King, which your cm can never follow ( He should have handed over his son for burning people in a press, he chosed to close his blind eyes).

Why the hell should Tamilians write about something that does not exist.Uttar kanda, moods Kanda, and all not tamil words Idiot. You wrote everything and became entangled in that.
By the way, what is your answer for Sitas Banihment? Rama didnt have beleif in his wife and sent for Agni pariksha. Even after the pariksha, rama throwed her out of the kingdom. After all this she gave birth to Lava and Kusha.

If Rama Had Banished his wife Just for the people whom he ruled..there is no bigger atrocity than this.And you call it High standard? Ha ha ha... you are no less than a Taliban
Will you do the same following the "High standard" when somebody says something bad about your wife. You Moron!!

Your wife will poison you if you believe in such crap. Because she needs to live in a constant state of fear since you follow the "High Standards" of Rama. She will fear that she might be thrown out of your home if somebody says bad about her.
Rama & Lakshmana are Cowards any way..why?
Nobody kills a woman for proposing right?
Then why Lakshmana killed Soorpanaga?
Is this the High Standard your Rama followed? shame on all of our Hindu community
