Since many TNLA leaders and cadres are Vanniyars, would they listen to you irrespective of their political affiliations?

Unemployment is one of the main reasons for the formation of extremist groups in Tirupattur, Dharmapuri and Perambalur areas. People in these areas live in abject poverty and depend heavily on money lenders who charge nearly 15 per cent interest. The unemployed youth formed an extremist organisation which later splits into factions. Some groups are even involved in extortion. Of course, these areas are dominated by Vanniyars and the first generation graduates and educated youth were attracted towards the ideology of Naxalism. Not only Vanniyars, Dalit youths are also in these movements. Will they listen to your appeal? I have appealed to them to give up violence and return to normal life. I urged them to hand over the arms they secured from a police station in Andimadam. The extremist path is not going to help them. One day, the police will shoot them down and declare that they were killed in an encounter. Former DGP Walter Dawaram killed so many youths and called it encounter deaths.
