Pon Kumar, a leader of the construction union workers and the founder of the Vanniyar Social Forum, has been working for social change.
Moreover, the Vanniyar community is very backward today in employment, industry and economic development, today he has taken a leadership for the community and started his work without any expectations. For this, social activists, industrialists, IAS officers, businessmen, etc., from the Vanniyar community, were treated for social welfare at Sabari Inn Hotel in T Nagar. The Vanniyar community came there and expressed their views for the welfare of the society.
Not only that, how did Chennai come into being? Who owns the place? Who gave the lands to Chennappa Naickenpattinam from the time of the Whites till today? They say that the Vanniyar community is a community with a historical background, and today some other Naidu community say that it belongs to them without knowing the history. I have all the evidence to show Pon Kumar for all that,” he says.
Also, August 22 is Chennai Day, in Chennai! They said they would hold a huge meeting with the Vanniya community to discuss the formation of Chennai. The meeting also decided to highlight the portrait of Rajendra Cholan as a symbol of the Vanniyar community and to take the history of the Cholas to the people.
Moreover, the purpose of this Vanniyar Social Forum is for social welfare. This organization has been formed to take care of the Vanniyar community in employment, industrial sector and the educational welfare of the students. The Vanniyar community has been advised to make use of this.
Moreover, I have seen the Vanniyar community speaking out of disbelief and disgust with the Pattali Makkal Katchi for many years. There is no denying that this society has been deceived to that extent. It is a difficult state of mind for them to recover from that disappointment because there are more victims of the Pattali Makkal Katchi. The beneficiaries will remain in that community only as members of that party. In such a situation, society has woken up.
Because even the functionaries who have left Ramadoss, many political parties, organizations and letter-pad parties, how can they benefit from this society? They are still working with that intention. So, we can’t change them, so we don’t have any hope that they will change,” the Vanniyar community said. Also, how many societies are I in Tamil Nadu? How many political parties are there? I have thought about it. I got to know what their state of mind was. You can’t change them.
And it has to be decided by the leader and the executives who can work faithfully for the community. The Vanniya community is once again looking for a confident leadership. I expect President Pon Kumar to compensate for that.
The love of the community was evident in the hearts of all those who spoke at this meeting. From the elderly to the middle-aged, what can everyone give to society? That’s what they talked about. They have come to give to the society and not to earn a living from the society and to enjoy the position and power by cheating the society.
Moreover, when a society progresses in industry and business, it is a change in society. That is what the Nadar community has done today and achieved great success. That’s a good thing. “We’re not going to compete with them for that,” says Pon Kumar. Social activists of the Vanniya community say that it is better for the Vanniyar community to take advantage of this and take advantage of this encouragement in this deceptive era.
L&T Southern Zonal Officer Mohanraj, former IAS officer Dasarathan, former MSME president Mariyappan, Chengalvaraya Naicker Trust member Venkatesan and others participated in the meeting.
