Standing firm on his statement calling for the eradication of Sanatana Dharma, Tamil Nadu Minister, and DMK leader Udhayanidhi Stalin on Saturday said that he is ready to present the extensive writings of E.V. Ramasamy (called ‘Periyar’ by his supporters) and B. R. Ambedkar on the subject.
“I am ready to present the extensive writings of Periyar and Ambedkar, who conducted in-depth research on Sanatan Dharma and its negative impact on society in any forum,” Stalin said in a post on X quoting BJP IT cell head Amit Malviya’s post.
“Sanatan Dharma is a principle that divides people in the name of caste and religion. Uprooting Sanatan Dharma is upholding humanity and human equality. I stand firmly by every word I have spoken. I spoke on behalf of the oppressed & marginalized, who suffer due to the Sanatan Dharma,” he further said in the post.
“Let me reiterate the crucial aspect of my speech: I believe, like the spread of diseases like COVID-19, Dengue, and Malaria by mosquitoes, that Sanatan Dharma is responsible for many social evils. I am prepared to confront any challenges that come my way, whether in a court of law or the people’s court. Stop spreading fake news,” the DMK minister added.
In a different post, defending his call for the eradication of Sanatana Dharma, Stalin said “We are followers of Periyar, Anna, and Kalaignar“.
Earlier, Udhayanidhi Stalin said that Sanatana Dharma is like malaria and dengue and so it must be eradicated and not merely opposed.
