BJP Condemns DMK MP A Raja’s Controversial Remarks

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) criticizes DMK MP A Raja for his remarks, alleging that he called for the “Balkanisation of India and derided Lord Ram.” Amit Malviya, the head of BJP’s IT cell, accuses DMK of persistent hate speeches, citing recent comments from both A Raja and Udhayanidhi Stalin. Malviya asserts that A Raja questions the idea of India as a nation and disparages various cultures within the country.

A Raja’s Alleged Controversial Statements

A Raja’s speech in Madurai, as translated by Malviya, suggests that he declared, “India is not a nation,” emphasizing the diverse languages, traditions, and cultures present. The BJP representative highlights specific comments about Manipuris and questions raised about the unity of India.

Silence of Congress and Alliance Partners

Malviya criticizes the silence of Congress and other INDI Alliance partners in response to these controversial statements. He particularly points out the lack of condemnation from Rahul Gandhi, the putative Prime Ministerial candidate. Malviya describes the silence as eloquent, implying complicity.

Supreme Court’s Reaction to Udhayanidhi Stalin’s Remarks

The criticism comes after the Supreme Court’s questioning of Udhayanidhi Stalin, the Tamil Nadu Sports Minister and DMK leader, over his remarks calling for the eradication of ‘Sanatana Dharma.’ The court expressed disapproval, stating that Udhayanidhi should have been aware of the consequences of his remarks before making them.

These developments underscore rising tensions and controversies surrounding remarks made by DMK leaders, prompting scrutiny from political opponents and judicial authorities.
