vadakalai vs thenkalai Iyengars and their on going fight

It is indeed a matter of utter disgust and shame to
see learned and sometimes even revered Iyengars
exhibiting open resentment in such gatherings as offering
the Gadyams of Sri Ramanuja to the Lord at Sri rangam temple
during the panguni uthiram festivals.Iam a vadakalai iyengar
and I was present during this Gadyam offering to the and had the
misfortune of being told by the thenkalai goshti assembled there to
not to open my mouth during the goshti as they think it is they and
they alone who are ordained to do it.I consider it downright uncouth arrogance
on the part of those in the goshti who indulge in such senseless behaviour
It is here in sri rangam the Lord had accepted the poetic offerings of Thirupanazwar
Let these groups come to a compromise soon and leave all their resentments once in for all
and start a joint goshti in future to uphold the teachings of the great founders of vaishnavism

I thought the Vadakalais claimed superiority over ThenKalais due to their lighter skin (more than their opposites). Thenkalais were inderectly dubbed as the converts from the non-Brahmins a 1000 years ago, while the Vadakalais are originals and naturally "superior"
