Tamil Nadu Minister Udayanidhi Stalin dismisses threats after controversial remarks on Sanatana Dharma
Chennai:
Tamil Nadu Minister Udayanidhi Stalin has boldly shrugged off the threats he received following a controversy surrounding his comparison of Sanatana Dharma to an epidemic. Responding to the threats, Udayanidhi proudly emphasized that he is the grandson of a man who was willing to lay down his life for the state of Tamil Nadu.
The Uttar Pradesh-based Paramahamsa Acharya recently offered a reward of Rs 10 crore to anyone who would kill Udayanidhi. In response, the minister cleverly remarked that a mere comb worth 10 rupees would suffice to groom his hair. As a precautionary measure, security around Udayanidhi has been heightened, with increased police presence deployed outside his residence in Chennai.
