Consider the following regarding the Dravidian politics in Tamil Nadu and select the correct code:
A. The non-Brahmin community recognised the need to challenge Brahmanical dominance for social advancement.
B. The Non-Brahmin Manifesto of 1916, the South India Peoples' Association of 1917, and the Justice Party's founding in 1923-1924 reflected non-Brahmin awareness.
C. E.V. Ramaswamy Naicker founded the Self-Respect Movement in 1925.
D. The Justice Party and the Self-Respect Movement later united to create the Dravida Kazhagam, led by M.G. Ramachandran.
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
The statements about challenging Brahmanical dominance and the founding of the Self-Respect Movement in 1925 are correct. The Justice Party was founded in 1916, so the account placing its founding in 1923-1924 is false. Dravida Kazhagam was led by E.V. Ramaswamy Naicker, not M.G. Ramachandran.
