Senior Congress leader Kamal Nath said that India is home to many religions and Sanatan Dharma does not teach anyone to keep other religions away. Let us discuss here that the above statement of Kamal Nath has come after Prime Minister Narendra Modi accused the opposition alliance Indian National Development Inclusive Alliance (India) of trying to ‘destroy’ Sanatan Dharma. Last Thursday, in Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh, the Prime Minister had alleged that the newly formed front of opposition parties of BJP wants to destroy India along with its rich culture of thousands of years.
Our country is a country of Sanatan Dharma: Kamal Nath
Talking to the media, Congress leader Kamal Nath said that we all have accepted Sanatan Dharma. There is no need to tell anyone about this. There is no point in explaining to anyone that our country is a country of Sanatan Dharma because there are other religions also. Sanatan Dharma never teaches anyone to keep other religions away. If you remember, a few days ago Tamil Nadu Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin created a controversy when he compared Sanatan Dharma with diseases like malaria and dengue and called for its “eradication”. Stalin’s party DMK is included in the opposition alliance ‘India’.
Kailash Vijayvargiya responded
Earlier, BJP General Secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya criticized the controversial statement given by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin’s son and Youth Welfare Minister of this state Udhayanidhi Stalin regarding Sanatan Dharma. He said that the leaders who make such statements are suffering from mental illness. Sanatan Dharma, which gives the message of peace and humanity to the world, will always remain.
What did Union Minister Purushottam Rupala say
Union Minister Purushottam Rupala recently attacked the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) over the controversial statements made by Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) leaders regarding Sanatan Dharma. Rupala said that this alliance of opposition parties will have to decide whether it will contest next year’s Lok Sabha elections with those who are against Sanatan Dharma? Minister Rupala said these things to the media while participating in the function organized in Indore on the third anniversary of Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana.
Let us tell you that assembly elections are going to be held in Madhya Pradesh this year. Before this, politics has intensified regarding the Sanatan Dharma issue. BJP leaders are continuously targeting the opposition alliance. The opposition alliance also seems to be presenting its stand on the matter and is putting BJP in the dock.
