Dharmasthala burials revelation shocked Nirmalananda Swamiji, says activist Girish Mattannavar
Bengaluru: Social activist Girish Mattannavar has stated that when Chinnayya personally revealed, in detail, the information about the bodies allegedly buried illegally in Dharmasthala, including those of victims of rape and murder, Nirmalananda Swamiji was stunned.
Posting about this on Instagram, he said that Chinnayya disclosed, point by point, not only the details of Sowjanya’s rape and murder but also other illegal killing cases before the seer. “Sowjanya was an innocent Vokkaliga girl, but justice is needed for innocent lives of every community. We stand with your struggle, the Math stands with you. I will meet the Chief Minister tomorrow itself and inform him about this issue, and we will try to secure justice for the distressed. Kaalabhairava is with you on this Kaalabhairava Sunday; be courageous,” the seer is said to have assured.
Girish added that after the Kaalabhairava darshan at the Vokkaliga Mahasamsthana, the revered Nirmalananda Guru blessed the Sowjanya justice movement and offered his protection while seated on his peetha, calling it a divine moment for all the activists.
He questioned whether it was a “conspiracy” when powerful Vokkaliga political leaders, who are known for their influence, failed to secure justice for a Vokkaliga girl like Sowjanya and instead sided with the influential family accused in the murder case, but a spiritual leader chose to bless the struggle.
He further asked, “What is wrong if the Vokkaliga family of the brutally raped and murdered girl, along with activists, seeks the blessings of the Vokkaliga seer for justice? How is that a conspiracy? Let the filthy political leaders and the sold-out media answer these questions.”
Girish Mattannavar also stated that at a time when political leaders remained blind and mute spectators to the serial rape-and-murder horror in Dharmasthala, Nirmalananda Swamiji stood up and provided moral strength to Bhageeratha Timarodi, who has been fighting relentlessly for justice. “The entire human race should feel proud of him,” he said. “Now let the dirty political leaders and some gutter-eating media tell us — where is the conspiracy? Who is the shark? Who are the urban Naxals?”
In a special note, he warned social media users not to dismiss the photos as “AI-generated.” “Those who spread such falsehoods and lose sleep over it should send it to the Fact Check Lab and fix their brains,” he wrote, using the hashtag #JusticeForSoujanya.

Kerala CM Vijayan flags ‘The Kerala Story 2’ as ‘threat to secularism’
Thiruvananthapuram (PTI): Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Wednesday expressed concern over the upcoming release of the second part of 'The Kerala Story', claiming that its first installment was made with the "intent to spread hatred against the state and undermine its secular tradition."
Vijayan, in a statement issued by his office, also questioned how "poisonous works produced to spread division and hatred in society" were allowed to be screened, while a film like 'Beef' was barred from a film festival.
He further said that Sangh Parivar centres had taken over and spread the false narrative conveyed by 'The Kerala Story'.
“They are spreading false propaganda by portraying even marriages conducted with mutual consent as examples of communalism and forced religious conversion,” the CM said.
He contended that such forces view Kerala—with no communal riots and a tradition of mutual respect among communities—with hostility, and termed them “enemies of the state” attempting to destroy the peace and tranquility of the region.
“We must collectively reject attempts to portray Kerala, a land of religious harmony that stands at the forefront of sustainable development and is a model in maintaining law and order, as a center of terrorism,” Vijayan said.
“It is the responsibility of each of us to ensure that Kerala’s secular foundation is not undermined by false propaganda and to reject it by upholding the values of secularism and brotherhood,” he added.
Directed by Kamakhya Narayan Singh, the teaser of 'Kerala Story 2: Goes Beyond', was released recently.
The first film, 'The Kerala Story', won awards for Best Direction and Best Cinematography at the 71st National Film Awards.
