From ultra left to campaigner for Tamil Brahmins

What Happened
Madurai lawyer K. S. Pandiarajan, once an ultra-left activist with a CPI(ML) group during the 1980s, shifted his focus after facing caste-based discrimination within party leadership. Despite being a senior, committed member, he was reportedly told his Brahmin background disqualified him from leadership roles. This prompted his departure and subsequent advocacy for Tamil Brahmin community rights.
