CM Stalin condemns ‘saffronisation’ of Doordarshan logo

Doordarshan Bharatiya Janata Party DMK Lok Sabha

DMK president and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, on April 21, alleged that the BJP government had changed the colour of the Doordarshan logo to saffron as a prelude to its conspiracy to “saffronise” everything in India.

In a post on X, the Chief Minister said that during the campaign he had pointed out the BJP’s agenda of saffronisation. “The outcome of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections will show people’s anger against the unitary fascist party,” he felt.

According to him, the BJP had previously denigrated poet-saint Thiruvalluvar and other personalities by depicting them in saffron attire. “They changed the Tamil word Vaanoli into Akashwani. If they are doing it again and again it shows their arrogance and they will be destroyed on June 4.” he said.

In the Bible, angels can be deadly. So why do we place them at the top of our Christmas trees?
Those beautiful white and gold angels you see on Christmas trees were originally monsters. At least, that is the claim made by scholar Esther Hamori in her book God’s Monsters. Hamori writes that angels “have acquired the soft-edged glow of a Hallmark card, but are some of the deadliest shapeshifters…
