Tamil Nadu IT Minister T Mano Thangaraj said the "Family Man 2" trailer released on social media was aimed at discrediting and distorting the historical struggle of the Eelam Tamils in Sri Lanka.
The Tamil Nadu government on Monday requested the Centre to take immediate action either to stop or ban the release of ''The Family Man 2'' webseries on Amazon Prime, saying it depicted the Eelam Tamils in a "highly objectionable manner." Claiming there were "condemnable, inappropriate and malicious contents" in the serial, Tamil Nadu IT Minister T Mano Thangaraj said the trailer released on social media was aimed at discrediting and distorting the historical struggle of the Eelam Tamils in Sri Lanka. "I would like to state that the above serial has not only hurt the sentiments of Eelam Tamils but also the feelings of the people of Tamil Nadu in large-scale and if allowed to broadcast, it would be prejudicial to the maintenance of harmony in the state," he said in a letter to Information and broadcasting minister Prakash Javadekar. Mr Thangaraj claimed the sacrifices of their long drawn out democratic battle has been intentionally undermined, and it could not by any stretch of imagination considered merely as a serial with any value for Tamil culture.
