Kannadigas in Tamilnadu

8.10.2014
I protest against a wall poster ( put up by an by an expelled ADMK member ) threatening Kannadigas living in Tamilnadu if Ms. Jayalalitha was not released from jail. I am glad that ADMK political leaders have criticised this act, and ordered removal of such posters.

Article 19 (1 ) (e ) of the Indian Constitution states :
" All citizens shall have the right---to reside and settle in any part of the territory of India "

Hence Kannadigas, or people from any part of India have a fundamental right to reside and settle in Tamilnadu, just as Tamilians have a fundamental right to settle in any part of India.

We are Indians first, and Tamilians or Kannadagis or people from any part of India, only afterwards.
