He advocated for gender equality and abolition of casteism and fought against superstitions and social evils prevalent in the society. He is considered the idealogical figurehead of most political parties in Tamilnadu today including the two major Dravidian Parties of DMK and ADMK which were created by a split from Periyar's Dravidar Kazhagam.

He is regarded as the Father of Modern Tamilnadu
Periyar worked hard throughout his life for the upliftment of the oppressed people. He firmly believed that education , self respect and rational qualities are the only ways to uplift the downtrodden.
