Karuppar koottam issue is now getting politicized by the parties: DMK organization secretary R S Bharathi today complained to the Chennai Commissioner about the fake Twitter account of DMK leader MK Stalin. Meeting the press, he said that some malicious attempts are made by miscreants to send false messages from Stalin's fake Twitter handle of supporting Karuppar koottam.
Meanwhile, many more cases are filed against Surendar, and even police custody is rumored of his support from anti-national activities. The CCB police have also now sent a letter to YouTube to block the Karuppar koottam channel.
Karuppar koottam storm never seems to end now.
Last week there was a big issue of Karuppar Koottam YouTube channel making some derogatory remarks against Lord Muruga. In the said video, Surendar, the owner of the Karupar Kootam YouTube Channel, has criticized the words of Kanda Sashti Kavasam. It is one of the universal praise of Lord Muruga for protection to the body and soul, which is recited in millions of Hindu homes even today.
L. Murugan, the Tamil Nadu BJP party president, held a protest outside his home on June 16. He demanded the Karuppar koottam channel's arrest for insulting Lord Muruga and the Hindu religion and cases booked against them under NSA or National Security Act.
