'Anti-Sanatanis will see their end in 2024': Baba Ramdev condemns anti-Sanatan politics

Yoga guru Baba Ramdev on Monday said that those talking about ending 'Sanatan' will themselves end in 2024 amid critical remarks against Sanatan Dharma by leaders of the DMK, a key member of the opposition I.N.D.I.A bloc. He also alleged that those calling 'Sanatan' discriminatory and casteist are working against it in collaboration with foreign powers as per an agenda.

“Those abusing and talking about ending 'Sanatan' will themselves end in the year 2024. Those calling 'Sanatan' casteist and discriminatory are working against it in collaboration with foreign powers as per an agenda. Those who are blaming Sanatan are trying to defame India. This country is capable of giving answers at political and social levels and we will answer and in the end, all these demons will be defeated," Ramdev told ANI.

Tamil Nadu Minister and DMK leader Udhayanidhi Stalin recently courted controversy after claiming that Sanatan Dharma is against social justice and calling for its eradication. Another DMK leader A Raja called 'Hindu religion a menace to India and the world'.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has also slammed the I.N.D.I.A for its alleged anti-Sanatan stance. "This amalgamation of egoists and opportunists, which has neither any ideology nor a vision for the nation, is bent upon harming Sanatan Dharma," Union Minister Anurag Thakur said.

People who have some glitch in their DNA like the word India: Ramdev

Baba Ramdev also reacted to the India-Bharat row. He said that the people who have problems in their DNA like the word India.

"We like the word Bharat. People who have some glitch in their DNA like the word India. If there is any place that has written Made in Bharat since 30 years ago, it is Patanjali," Ramdev added.

The controversy started after Union minister Dharmendra Pradhan shared on X, formerly Twitter, a G20 dinner invite in which President Droupadi Murmu was described as 'President of Bharat'.
