In Rajya Sabha earlier today, BJP MP asked TN govt to register FIR, sack ministers for 'hate speech' against Sanatan Dharma
BJP Rajya Sabha member GVL Narasimha Rao on Tuesday accused Tamil Nadu ministers of making "hate" speeches against Sanatan Dharma and Hindu religion and asked the state government to register a case against them.
The Constitution allows every religion, every member and every sect to practice their faith and even propagate it, he said, and demanded the sacking of the state ministers for their objectionable remarks.
Raising the issue during the Zero Hour in the Upper House, Rao said that a minister in the Tamil Nadu government indulged in hate speech against Sanatan Dharma and the Hindu religion.
"I quote what he said, 'Sanatan Dharma is like malaria, and dengue, and so it must be eradicated and not opposed'," the BJP member said without naming anyone.
Another minister in the same state government has mentioned that the purpose of the formation of the INDIA alliance is " the eradication of Sanatana Dharma", the BJP member alleged, and wondered whether they wanted to pursue "this kind of anti-India agenda".
