[IAC#RG] Fwd: Why Mass agitation on jallikattu now in Tamil Nadu and not earlier ?

                                                                                 Why Mass agitation on jallikattu now in Tamil Nadu and not earlier ?

 


Jallikattu issue has been hanging  fire in  Tamil Nadu for several years now. But, the state has never witnessed this sort of mass agitation demanding jallikattu.


In a state  like Tamil Nadu, with around 700 lakh population, even if  0.1 % of the population (70000 people) join the agitation, it would  be termed  as mass agitation.


Many people wonder why this mass agitation has happened now and not earlier when Ms. Jayalalitha was the Chief Minister. The issue remained the same earlier and now  and therefore, the emotions should have been the same earlier and now.


Can anyone explain this?  Can we simply accept the theory that mob rule takes place when governance weakens ?
