Periyar – The Father of Social Justice

He dedicated his life to eradicating caste discrimination, promoting women’s rights, and fostering self-respect among marginalized communities. His bold ideas on rationalism and equality laid the foundation for a society free from oppression. Periyar’s tireless efforts in advocating for social reforms continue to inspire generations to fight for justice, equality, and human dignity.
