Tiruchi City police registers case against BJP IT cell chief Amit Malviya

The Tiruchi City police on Wednesday registered a case against BJP IT cell chief Amit Malviya on charges of twisting the comments of Minister for Youth Welfare and Sports Development Udhayanidhi Stalin on Sanatana Dharma.

At a conference organised by the Tamil Nadu Progressive Writers Artists Association in Chennai on September 2, 2023, Mr. Udhayanidhi had said a few things could not be opposed but had to be eradicated. “Just like dengue, mosquitoes, malaria, or coronavirus need to be eradicated, we have to eradicate Sanatana Dharma,” he said.

Mr. Malviya in a post on X, claimed that Mr. Udhayanidhi had called for “genocide of 80% of India’s population.”
