Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on September 13 said Sanatana Dharma is the “rashtriya (national) religion” of Bharat.
Against the backdrop of controversial comments on Sanatana Dharma by DMK leader Udhayanidhi Stalin, Mr. Adityanath said it was unfortunate that some people living in India are still insulting the Sanatana Dharma which has been attacked since ancient times.
“Sanatana Dharma is the Rashtriya dharma [national religion] of Bharat. No one can question its perpetuity,” the U.P. Chief Minister said at the unveiling ceremony of Dhwajstambh (flagstaff) at Nath temple in Indore.
