3 min read

On Monday (September 4), Communist Party of India (CPI) chief D Raja stirred the hornet’s nest for refusing to acknowledge Sanatan Dharma as a spiritual philosophy and blaming it for propagating inequality and patriarchy.

While chatting with The New Indian, the CPI General Secretary claimed, “First, we should understand, Sanatan is not Dharma…Dharma is something else…Yes, he (Udhayanidhi Stalin) said something…We are all opposed to Sanatan.”

“Sanatan perpetuates the caste system, Sanatan perpetuates patriarchy, Sanatan perpetuates inequality…Let them say no,” he brazened it out. D Raja focused Tamil Nadu Governor RN Ravi for stating how Petiyar and Marxists created division in Indian society and destroyed social values.

“We do not agree with Amit Shah…We do not agree with the Central government…Sanatan is Sanatan. Let them go and read Ambedkar’s riddles of Hinduism and then we will debate,” the CPI chief concluded.

The growth got here two days after DMK chief Udhayanidhi Stalin stirred the hornet’s nest by evaluating the Hindu civilisational spiritual philosophy with ‘malaria’ and ‘dengue.’

Udhayanidhi Stalin and his objectionable remarks in opposition to Sanatan Dharma

On Saturday (September 2), the Minister for Youth Welfare and Sports Development of Tamil Nadu mentioned, “Mosquitoes, dengue, flu, malaria, corona – we should not oppose these things. They’ve to be eradicated completely.”

“The same is the case with Santanam (Hinduism). Our first work should be to abolish/eradicate Sanatanam instead of opposing it. So, my appreciation to you all for giving an apt title to the meeting,” he said. 

Later, he went on a tirade in opposition to the Hindu civilisational spiritual philosophy on social media. While taking to X (previously Twitter), Udhayanidhi Stalin wrote, “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 spoke on behalf of the oppressed & marginalized, who suffer due to the Sanatan Dharma. I spoke on behalf of the oppressed & marginalized, who suffer due to the Sanatan Dharma,” he reiterated his sinister plan.

Tamil Nadu Congress leaders help DMK, abuse Sanatan Dharma

Tamil Nadu Congress chief Karti Chidambaram additionally prolonged his help to Stalin on Saturday (September 2).

“Sanatan Dharma is nothing but code for a Caste Hierarchical Society. All those batting for it are hankering for the Good Ole Days! Caste is the Curse of India,” he went on a vitriolic rant in opposition to the Hindu civilisational spiritual philosophy.

On Sunday (September 3) morning, he posted one other tweet defending DMK chief Udhayanidhi Stalin. “There was no call for “Genocide” in opposition to anybody, it is a mischievous spin,” Karti Chidambaram claimed.

Tamil Nadu Congress spokesperson and General Secretary Lakshmi Ramachandran additionally courted controversy for equating Hinduism (Sanatan Dharma) with hate-mongering.

In a tweet, she wrote, “Sanathanam is another name for the hate-mongering, casteist Hindutva which has its origins in the North.” The Congress chief then claimed that ‘Hinduism’ within the South was completely different from the North.
