& #39;The Hindu& #39; quoting & #39;Our Desathinte Katha" Sugathan,(1971) an & #39;event& #39; happened in 1802.
though, there is no mention of such incidence in state records

Clubbing "Cloth controversy", "Mulakaram", "Nangeli Sacrifice" to form a story.

Mulakaram and Tulakaran were tax for attaining working age (NOT Breast TAX)

The only mention in antiquity of a breast chopped off was for not paying TAX https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👇" title="Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten" aria-label="Emoji: Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten"> (published in 1937)

I firmly belief, History books should remain historical not fictional

@timesofindia referered T Murali (Chithrakaran), known for publishing Hindu hate blogs.
His insulted Godess Saraswati in a deleted blog cannot be written here.
Few SS from Murali& #39;s FB account shows amount of Hindu-Hate
