Releasing the Tamil version of Deendayal Udadhyaya's books: Dispersions of thought and Integral humanism at a function held at the Raj Bhavan on February 21, Ravi highlighted the four prominent western ideologies i.e. Theology, Darwinian's theory, Karl Marx theory, and Rousseau's social contract theory that caused damage to our national growth.
On Karl Marx's perpetual conflicts between haves and have-nots, the Governor had said, "as per the theory, 'have nots' has to prevail and this idea spread like a virus.
This model created divisions between and within different segments. It triggered perpetual conflict in society."
