In a staggering revelation, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has claimed that the I.N.D.I.A. alliance, led by the Congress and its leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, has a clandestine agenda to undermine Sanatana Dharma for political gains. Party president J.P. Nadda pulled no punches as he alleged that the attack on the ancient Hindu faith is a meticulously crafted strategy of the Opposition. This bold assertion follows remarks by Tamil Nadu Education Minister K. Ponmudy that the I.N.D.I.A. bloc was formed as an “opposition to Sanatana ideology.”

Why the Silence on Sanatana Dharma? Questions BJP

Nadda spotlighted the silence maintained by senior leader Sonia Gandhi and other I.N.D.I.A. alliance members on the topic. The BJP questioned why the Opposition bloc hasn’t made their stance clear on the derogatory comments against the ancient faith. According to Nadda, these comments seem to contravene the Constitution’s safeguards on religion. The Opposition needs to explain why they are fueling hate against Sanatana Dharma under the guise of a “shop of love,” he insinuated.

Former Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad joined the fray, making it clear that the I.N.D.I.A. alliance is actively opposing Sanatana Dharma for vote-bank politics. Prasad claimed that leaders from Bihar minister and RJD leader Chandra Shekhar to Samajwadi Party’s Swami Prasad Maura have criticized sacred Hindu texts, while the alliance remains conspicuously silent. Such a silence, Prasad indicated, is tantamount to approval and vowed that the BJP will make this a people’s issue, stressing both “development and heritage.”

Are the Gandhis and I.N.D.I.A. Alliance Working to Dismantle Sanatana Dharma?

The more Sonia Gandhi keeps mum, the clearer it becomes that assaulting Sanatana Dharma aligns with the I.N.D.I.A. alliance’s core political objectives, said Prasad. Almost every party in the I.N.D.I.A. alliance has had a go at mocking Sanatana Dharma, including Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and his son, he added.
