Defiant in the face of massive backlash over his comment on 'sanatan dharma', Udhayanidhi Stalin has said that he will repeatedly keep saying the same words. He said that he included all the religions and not just Hindus in his statement. The DMK leader also said that he was just condemning the caste differences. 

Udhayanidhi, the son of Tamil Nadu chief minister MK Stalin, had on Saturday called for the eradication of 'sanatan dharma' while comparing it to diseases like dengue and malaria. 

The BJP launched a scathing attack on DMK leader Udhayanidhi Stalin and the INDIA coalition over his comments against 'sanatan sharma', alleging it is clear that complete eradication of Hindu dharma is the primary agenda of the opposition alliance.

Describing the DMK leader's remarks as "hate speech", the BJP also urged the Supreme Court to take action against him in accordance with the law.
