Even when confronted with carbon-dated artefacts and Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) reports from International Laboratories on the #Keezhadi excavations, they continue to demand “more proof.” And here is the "Proof".
But on the contrary, despite strong opposition from respected historians and archaeologists, the BJP continues to promote the mythical Sarasvati Civilisation. They do so without credible evidence, while dismissing the rigorously proven antiquity of Tamil culture.
When it comes to #Keezhadi and the enduring truth of Tamil heritage, the BJP-RSS ecosystem recoils — not because evidence is lacking, but because the truth does not serve their script.
We fought for centuries to unearth our history. They fight every day to erase it.
The world is watching. So is time. #Keeladi #கீழடி

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin strongly criticized the Union government and affiliated ideological groups for persistently dismissing rigorous archaeological proof uncovered at the Keezhadi excavation site. He emphasized that findings from the ancient Vaigai river valley settlement have been conclusively authenticated through Accelerator Mass Spectrometry dating and carbon analysis conducted by premier international laboratories. Despite peer-reviewed scientific corroboration establishing an advanced, literate Sangam urban society flourishing as early as the sixth century BCE, central agencies continue to demand unreasonable additional proof.
Stalin contrasted this skepticism with the Union establishment aggressive promotion of the mythical Sarasvati Civilization, noting that central authorities push unverified historical theories lacking credible archaeological substantiation. He argued that the political establishment recoils from Keezhadi because scientific truths confirming the antiquity and secular nature of Dravidian civilization disrupt their ideological agenda.
The Chief Minister asserted that while generations of Tamil scholars and activists struggled to unearth their authentic cultural heritage, ideological adversaries remain intent on erasing regional history. He affirmed that global scientific consensus, enduring material artifacts, and objective historical truth will ultimately prevail over politically motivated historical distortion across international platforms.
