Both Mahavira and Siddhartha Gautama opposed the teachings of the Hindu Brahmins and founded new religions in India. Mahavira founded Jainism. Siddhartha Gautama became known as the Buddha, and was the founder of Buddhism.

A strange brahmin called ramanujam disliked the segegration of the sudras and so decided to start a new revolution by making the sudras of southern Tamil nadu to wear the sacred cross threads called poonol and allowed them inside temples.
