Explanation:

Erode Venkatappa Ramaswamy (1879 - 1973) was an ardent follower of Mahatma Gandhi, but he was forced to leave Indian National Congress in the year 1925.The main reason was injustice to non-brahmins, which motivated him to start the self respect movement for the backward classes and weaker sections of the society.He was famously known as ' Periyar' by his followers in TamilNadu as well as other states in Southern India.
