That’s the Nallur Kandaswamy Kovil, the premier Hindu temple in Jaffna. A local Buddhist convert and Ambedkarite activist called Arun Siddharth promoted by the Sinhalese Buddhist establishment said he wanted to demolish it and build a public toilet in its place. He’s been trying to convert lower caste Tamils into Buddhism, arguing Hinduism is casteist. This has been the strategy of the Buddhist state since the 1960s, when they did manage to convert a few Dalits. This is what the Indians who were calling for the arrest of Muslims who blasphemed against Shiva in the Anojan case don’t get. Just like the Buddhist bomb threats on FB recently against the premier Vishnu temple in Jaffna, nothing will happen because the state itself has been the biggest desecrator.
Eelam Tamils are the most Underrated and Aesthetic Hindus ever man 🙏🏻
