In 2019, the Tamil Nadu BJP shared a photo on its Twitter page of Thiruvalluvar wearing a saffron dress and Thiruneeru. This drew criticism from Tamil Nadu political party leaders.
In this regard, the leader of the Naam Tamilar Katchi says, “they are trying to add saffron to Thiruvalluvar, who gave Thirukural to this world. This is something they usually do. We worship Valluvar as a divinity. Humiliating him can have face consequences. Action should be taken against those involved in this act, ” the Hindu Tamil reported in November 2019.
The photo has been shared on a social networking site as the banner at the NTK party of Seeman, who criticized Thiruvalluvar’s saffron, featured a photo of Thiruvalluvar in saffron. The Perambalur constituency secretary of the Naam Tamil party has replied that this has happened without knowing it.
The photo has been shared on social networking as “NTK party leader Seeman, who also previously criticized Thiruvalluvar’s saffron now why featured a photo of Thiruvalluvar in saffron in NTK party’s banner?”. Perambalur constituency secretary Balaguru said, “ This has happened unknowingly. We will change the banner immediately. ”
