Song targeting Ram Rajya Rath Yatra goes viral; lyrics say Modi's slippers ruling Tamil Nadu
A song targeting Ram Rajya Rath Yatra's entry in Tamil Nadu has gone viral. A viral video uploaded on a Facebook page has singer Kovan, a member of the Makkal Kalai Ilakkiya Kazhagam (people’s art and literary association), taking on the yatra and also criticising Narendra Modi government. In the video, Kovan and a group of folk artists start by asking, “where are you holding your rath yatra?” They go on to add, “this will be the last yatra for Rama Rajya.” The lyrics say that 'like Ram Rajya, Modi's slippers ruling Tamil Nadu'. MKIK says that they made the viral song to combat BJP's communal agenda in Tamil Nadu.
