Question

write briefly about the conditions of periyar E.V.R to the social upliftment​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Periyar EVR, who would have turned 141 today, remains an idol for everybody in Tamil Nadu. Such was his stature, that he is revered across the country half a century post his death.

A rationalist at heart, he was deeply anti-caste, so much so that he angered almost everybody around him. His opposition to religion often garnered a lot of respite; but emancipated a major portion of Dalits who were battling for identity and existence. He advocated for science as the only remedy for the fallacies of our society. He went on to claim that there is no God. This idea of his arose when he was on a pilgrimage to Kasi in 1904 where he was refused food because of his caste. This made him fight the Brahminical exploitation.
