Former Union Minister Dr Subramanian Swamy has written a letter to Governor RN Ravi seeking action against State Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin for his remarks against Sanatana Dharma. Swamy wrote in his social media page, ‘I have sent a letter to TN Governor seeking Sanction to Prosecute Stalin beta who on nepotism is a Minister. Once more if he repeats deprecating Sanatana Dharma I will work for dismissal of TN State Government. I proved in 1991 that India is a Union of States not a Federation.’“The accused is a public figure having major public outreach, following and viewership. The offending statement made by the accused has successfully reached millions of people, and has influenced countless persons, creating an environment of fear in the ‘Sanatana Dharma’ community, even more so, since the political party of the accused is the ruling government in Tamil Nadu,” Swamy said in a letter to the Governor.
Governor may kindly accord sanction for the prosecution of the accused who has committed various heinous offences against public tranquillity, in the interest of justice, and in the exercise of your constitutional prerogative, he wrote.
