Madasamy a.k.a Jayakanthan is well known for his controversial stories, what can you expect from a commie writer about women was my first perception, but then there were nuances which should be appreciated for his views on women how this society has given yardsticks to define a women's character which has brought too much ipse dixits as social constructs.

To bring change there requires strong and healthy debate to bring down such dogmas against any oppressed collective, but you know what this is just another log on commie novels which had derivative to sideline the main players of the society to create some kind of drift. To bring that it requires strong controversy, so JK just did that just using two simple strategies making the community of the character look like perverts and the Rapist as a divine creature also the lead role Ganga as a half-wit which saddens me also sub-standardizes women in general.

The premise could have been set to any other caste background where there is more anarchy, instead, JK goes with society with the community which is a minority and more open and educated look like a doofus. Anyway, this is a plot where a criminal is portrayed as a hero and the victim/woman a half-wit. This shows the perverted nature of the author and his itch to show a particular community in a bad light thanks to the Dravidian politics of Tamilnadu.
