Raja Gopal’s(Rajaji) Daughter was one of the victims of child marriage. Though Rajaji was a governor general during british time itself he couldn’t resist that against his own community. Unfortunately the husband of the child expired. Rajaji’s daughter becomes a child widow at the age of 12 years old. Rajaji’s family shaved her head and isolated her inside her own house as per the latest #Sanatancustom at that time.(earlier it was #SATI) https://wedravidians.com/brutal-social-casual-murders-by-brahmins-sati/1916/… Periyar&Rajaji were contemporary politicians and good friends too though they opposed each other ideologically. After a few years of this tragedy Periyar visited Rajaji’s house and witnessed the pathetic situation of his daughter. He was very angry and scolded Rajaji. Called the little girl,talked to her and made her to be normal like others. Not only that, Periyar told this information to Gandhi and arranges for remarriage. As Gandhi and Rajaji are close friends, he tells his son Devdas Gandhi (who founded the Hindi Prachar Sabha) that he will marry Rajaji’s daughter. At that time Rajaji’s daughter was 15 years old and Devdas was 28 years old. After waiting for 5 years, Periyar gets them married. Gopala Krishna Gandhi is the son of their happy life. (Yes the one whom we nominated for President of India election) Through this incident you may understand that staunch followers like Rajaji of Sanatan needed Periyar’s revolution & help to fix the problems of their own houses. Today in the Brahmin society, remarriage & inter caste marriages are taking place in large numbers and it is because of this Periyar. #Periyarism #PeriyarForever Orininal: R.M.Babu Translated by : Kathir RS
