The book titled ‘Modi and Ambedkar’ was released on the 14th. Ilayaraja, the famous composer who wrote the foreword to the book, had mentioned that various projects were being implemented under the Modi regime based on Ambedkar’s thoughts.
Ilayaraja’s comment has caused controversy and debate in Tamil Nadu politics. It has been commented on social media against Ilayaraja that it is wrong to compare Prime Minister Narendra Modi with Ambedkar. At the same time, Ilayaraja’s opinion is correct and some are in favor.
Meanwhile, music arranger Ilayaraja has said that he will not withdraw his comments on Prime Minister Narendra Modi. BJP leaders have been commenting in support of him. BJP national leader JP Natta, Tamil Nadu BJP leader K Annamalai, Union minister L Murugan, Pondicherry deputy governor and Telangana state governor Tamizhai Saundarajan, among others, have expressed support for music organizer Ilayaraja.
In this context, it has been reported that music composer Ilayaraja is to be appointed as a member of the Parliamentary State Council.
