Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Monday said that Congress and Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (I.N.D.I.A) bloc leaders should apologise over the remarks made by DMK leader Udhayanidhi Stalin on Sanatan Dharma.
Flagging off the BJP’s ‘Parivartan Sankalp Yatra’ from Ramdevara in Jaisalmer, Rajanth Singh said, “Congress ally DMK is insulting Sanatan Dharma. They say that Sanatan Dharma should be abolished. Allies of the I.N.D.I.A coalition have kept silent on this. Why Gehlot ji is silent, and Sonia ji silent? Congress and I.N.D.I.A should apologise.”
Udhayanidhi Stalin has come under severe criticism since he mentioned on Saturday that Sanatan Dharma should not merely be opposed but eradicated.
The Defence Minister further stated that the law and order situation in Rajasthan has become very bad and crimes against women have increased.
