PM Modi fires off scathing response to Udhayanidhi Stalin’s rant on Sanatana Dharma

In a scintillating and unmissable development, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi sharply responded to Tamil Nadu minister Udhayanidhi Stalin’s controversial comments on Sanatana Dharma. Speaking at a Council of Ministers meeting on the eve of the G20 Summit, Modi emphatically declared that such incendiary remarks deserve a “proper response.” This high-voltage situation has all eyes on it, especially as the comment that ignited the firestorm equated Sanatana Dharma with diseases like dengue and malaria.

Udhayanidhi Stalin, son of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin, shocked the nation last Saturday by declaring that Sanatana Dharma is against social justice and must be “eradicated.” The outrageous comparison of the ancient Hindu spiritual tradition with lethal diseases unleashed a torrent of backlash, setting social media ablaze with calls for legal action against him.

But wait, there’s more! Doubling down on his initial remarks, Udhayanidhi, while addressing the media, accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of distorting his comments. Defiantly, he said, “I will keep demanding the abolition of Sanatana Dharma.” The minister further dismissed the criticism as “childish,” comparing it to PM Modi’s ‘Congress Mukt Bharat’ slogan.

The escalating tension has pulled the rug out from under the Indian political landscape, leaving the country in a gripping standoff. With PM Modi stepping into the ring to respond, it’s clear that the battle lines have been drawn. As accusations of ‘fake news’ and ‘twisting statements’ fly, the spotlight is firmly on this high-stakes controversy that has both leaders and the public holding their breaths. Stay tuned, as this political firestorm is far from over!
