6/6 We believe in a value system that respects art and artists, vaggeyakaras, rasikas, institutions, our roots and culture. We will be in moral violation if we were to bury these values and join this year’s conference. #madrasmusicacademy #respectcarnaticmusic

5/6 Its dangerous to overlook Mr TM Krishna’s glorification of a figure like EVR who 1. Openly proposed a genocide of ‘brahmins’ 2. Repeatedly called/abused every woman of this community with vile profanity 3. Relentlessly worked to normalize filthy language in social discourse

#thread 2/6 He has caused immense damage to the Carnatic music world, wilfully and happily stomped over the sentiments of this community and insulted most respected icons like Tyagaraja and MS Subbulakshmi. #madrasmusicacademy #respectcarnaticmusic

#thread 1/6 We have communicated our decision to withdraw from participating in the Music Academy’s conference 2024 & from presenting our concert on 25 Dec. We made this decision as the conference would be presided over by TM Krishna. #madrasmusicacademy #respectcarnaticmusic

I find it very disturbing that a very large section of the media in England is asking questions of a girl who played by the laws of the game & none at all of another who was gaining an illegal advantage and was a habitual offender. That includes reasonable people & I think (1/n)

China is threatening Taiwan, Saudis are bombing Yemen, Russia is invading Ukraine, Hamas is firing rockets at Israel, Africa is reeling under Famine; and the one Agency whose job it is to address all this, is busy outraging on a bona fide judicial process against legal fraud.

My father was a salaried man for 30 years, then at 55, he started his own business. His team is the same over 40 yrs. Today at 75, he received d largest cheque of his career for an export order. It’s special when small businesses make big money. Nice guys don’t always finish last

Biden last March called Putin a "killer" and now threatens to slap personal sanctions on him. But Biden, more respectful of China, hasn't called Xi a killer, despite Xi's notorious Muslim gulag. Nor has Biden uttered a word on China's massing of over 100,000 troops against India.

Many asparagus-eating friends have written privately to me to say they enjoyed ‘Decoupled’. I see that they are restrained in publicly sharing this view to appease the more delicate. I request you to instead champion us. The show has given so much joy to so many sane people.

Dravidianism is an elite movement which appropriates the suffering which they inflict on lower classes and blames it on a convenient minority scapegoat. In India we call such movements as progressive liberalism.

We are the diabetes capital of the world not because a few individuals are overeating and under exercising, but because of- -no regulations on junk food -unwalkable cities and towns -pollution -poor investment in public health It's the same stuff that puts us at covid risk.
