karunanidhi did a lot good to tamil people(i am no tamil). he might be a greedy person saving everything for his family, but tamils will remember him for many centuries from now. he stood up for tamil identity like no other in face of great adversity from many quarters. it did hurt brahmin tamils though, who are no less tamil than the rest of them. tamils need to search for better leadership after his death who can provide stable leadership for their state and make sure it stays united.

Karunanidhi was a great leader of world tamils. Dravidian identity was founded by EVR Periyar and followed by Anna. But Karunanidhi made a strong base for dravidian identity in tamil nadu and ensured only a dravidian party can rule tamilnadu, let it be DMK or ADMK or MDMK or PMK. As a staunch savior of dravidian identity, he has to cross swords with GOD, Brahmins, Sanskrit, Hindi , Sinhalese as one time or other they try to dominate over dravidian tamils.

karuna-andhi was responsible for saying ram as drunkard king and he also stated that there was no ram at all. this fool cm contradicts in both his statements and playing like a cpm chamcha of china.

Karunanidhi didnot say that Ram is a drunkard. When a engilsh channel reporter said to MK, " That the whole of north india is against karunanidhi for his remarks against ram" , MK replied in tamil that " I have not said anything wrong about Ram. Valmiki says that Ram is a drunkard , but i have not even said those things. This was Mis reported by the media. He challenged Advani to come for a debate about ram after reading ramayana. Advani didnot come as if he comes , all truth will come out.

While praising krunanidhi, please mention also the filthy Language he has used and the hatred for brahmins that he incited throghout his career.Also mention the height of Dynastic Politics he is playing.[Promoting several members of his huge Families with several wives!]
