The controversy started after DMK MP Raja while addressing a meet organised by Dravidar Kazhagam said, "You're a Shudra till you're a Hindu. You're a prostitute's son till you remain as a Shudra and you're a Panchaman (Dalit) till you're a Hindu. You're are an untouchable till you remain a Hindu."

On September 14, BJP said that the comment by A Raja could result in communal violence. Earlier, BJP state vice-president Karu Nagaraj gave a complaint to the police in which he alleged that Raja made the statements in order to destroy the religious beliefs of Hindus.

Meanwhile, shops downed their shutters in the Nilgiris, the parliamentary constituency of A Raja, for his recent remark. The police patrol was also stepped up in public places and private buses did not ply in the region.
