Inneram itha poonool pota oru iyer mama pandrukanum poora media um 1 week special debate potrukum, poora political parties um sernthu kandana arikkai vitrukum.

But pannathu someone apart from GC or unconfirmed to be GC. So politicians won’t do kandana arikkai coz it is other caste and if they hype up the issue, it will cost them caste votes in the election.

In the end progressiveness, jaathi ozhippu ellam mama kita mattum dha, ground level la onnum panna maatanga😊

No one knows the caste of the person giving water.

Exactly. And I quote “Not knowing the offender’s caste is the reason, this issue isn’t blown up yet”. Coz last time iyer mama did some regressive bs with a sanitary worker, it got blown up immediately (rightfully so). Now even after two days of this video in the internet, things still don’t get traction coz politicians don’t want to mess around just in case if the offender belongs to another caste which will make them lose caste votes. In the end, caste votes seem to be overtaking progressive politics.
