Hyderabad (Telangana): The head priest of Chilkur Balaji temple, Rangarajan, on Sunday called on the people of Tamil Nadu to remove the Dravidian party from power and elect someone who believes in the temple system and Sanata Dharma.
The statement of Chilkur Balaji temple's priest came in response to Tamil Nadu Minister Uddhayanidhi Stalin's latest remark on Santan Dharma at the 'Sanatan Abolition Conference'.
Rangarajan expressed strong disappointment over Udhayanidhi's remark and suggested him to ask his father (MK Stalin) about the history of Sanatan Dharma.
In a video message, Rangarajan, along with other priests of the temple, said, "We have seen the statement of Uddhayanidhi Stalin, who is the son of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and the cabinet minister in the MK Stalin government. He is comparing Sanatan Dharma to malaria, coronavirus, and dengue. First of all, he is in a constitutional post. He is not supposed to speak nonsense or things like this, and he is also challenging that you people can go to any court. I am ready to face it. We'll not go to any court; why should we go to the court? We ask the people of Tamil Nadu and also Udhayanidhi Stalin to please read history and ask your father, under whom you have been trained."
He further said that Udhayanidhi should ask MK Stalin about who Ma Po Si was.
"Ask your father who was Mylai Ponnuswamy Sivagnanam, he was a great stalwart who has written a lot of books on Sillapati Khalam. You ask him about his opinion on Dravidianism. You ask your father about Mahaposhi and only then come back and talk about the Sanatan Dharma. If Mahaposhi was not respected and worshipped by Karunanidhi, he would not have been able to get any seats in Tamil Nadu. Please remember this fact," he added.
"Secondly, I want to tell the people of Tamil Nadu, you have had enough non-sensical things from these Dravidian parties; we now need to elect the person who believes in the temple system, who believes in Sanatan Dharma, Rama, and Ram Rajya," he added.
