OUR PURPOSE
Founder Vasanth believes that every citizen of India must read and understand the ideologies of Babasaheb Ambedkar, Thanthai Periyar, Karl Marx, and other revolutionary leaders. This platform is built to reclaim the history that was suppressed or hidden from the people.
Our mission is to provide these books free of cost so that every single citizen can read and awaken their consciousness. Jai Bhim.
FOUNDER OF NEELAM MAKKAL: VASANTH
The Founder's Story
"My name is Vasanth. You might wonder why I only use my first name. I come from the land where Thanthai Periyar lived—a land where attaching a caste surname is considered a sign of regression. There is no need for it."
"Thanthai Periyar E.V. Ramaswamy taught us that as long as the surname—which holds the seed of caste discrimination—is not discarded, the hierarchy of high and low will never end. This is why he threw away his own caste name. Similarly, Babasaheb Ambedkar chose the path of Buddhism to leave behind the discrimination of the caste system."
"To advance their vision, I started Neelam Makkal. Through this, I aim to amplify their mission. Thank you. Jai Bhim."
NEELAM MAKKAL REPORTER & EDITOR: JAYASRI
Bridge to Justice
"I am Jayasri, a dedicated member of the Neelam Makkal team, where I serve as a bridge between the world of law and the lives of the common people. Currently pursuing my BA.L.L.B, my mission is to ensure that justice isn’t confined to heavy textbooks, but is understood by everyone in our society."
"With over two years of professional experience as a Video and Photo Editor, I believe that visual storytelling is the most powerful tool for social change. Using industry-standard tools like DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Photoshop, and CapCut, I transform complex legal frameworks and social justice issues into high-quality, cinematic visuals."
"As a 'Neelam Makkal Reporter' and active member of this movement, I am committed to simplifying legal rights and amplifying the voices that need to be heard. I don’t just edit videos; I craft narratives that empower, educate, and inspire our community to stand up for their rights."
