Actor Sathyaraj's daughter Divya Sathyaraj has always spoken out on social issues staunchly just as her father always does. In this recent statement, Divya gives a direct statement - "I will not say sorry!" - Why? What's the issue? Let's know.
Divya had recently made a statement against the Rath yatra that was supposed to take place in Tamil Nadu stating that it is irresponsible to plan a large religious procession during thebCovid pandemic situation.
"As a nutritionist I have always been concerned about public health. Social distancing is extremely significant at the moment and conducting the rath yatra is against public well being. I stand by what I said, I strongly condemn the rath yatra during the Covid 19 situation as it is against public safety. I will not apologise”, she said.
Divya is a leading nutritionist in India,and she had written a letter to the PMO a few years ago criticising the NEET exams and the letter had gone viral.Divya had also started people’s movement called “Mahilmadhi iyakkam” to provide nutritious food to people in the lower income group. Not to forget the numerous requests she had made to the Government to provide direct income support to the small farmers thus compensating their loss due to the COVID-19 lockdown.
