In a shocking and highly controversial statement, an influential Ayodhya seer has called for the beheading of Udhayanidhi Stalin, a prominent political figure and the son of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin. The seer’s remarks come in response to comments made by Udhayanidhi Stalin regarding Sanatan Dharma, sparking outrage and demands for immediate action.
The controversy began when Udhayanidhi Stalin, during a political rally in Tamil Nadu, made comments perceived by some as critical of Sanatan Dharma, one of the major religions of India. He reportedly questioned certain beliefs associated with the religion, leading to anger among some Hindu groups and religious leaders.
One such leader, Mahant Vishambhar Das, an Ayodhya-based seer and a prominent figure in the Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid dispute, took offense to Udhayanidhi Stalin’s remarks. In a video that has since gone viral on social media, Mahant Vishambhar Das can be heard calling for Udhayanidhi Stalin’s beheading and asserting that he should be punished for his comments about Sanatan Dharma.
The seer’s statement has drawn widespread condemnation from various quarters, including political leaders, religious groups, and civil society organizations. Many have called for legal action against Mahant Vishambhar Das for inciting violence and making a dangerous statement.
The Uttar Pradesh Police have registered a case against the seer under various sections of the Indian Penal Code for promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, and other factors. Authorities have also deployed additional security personnel to ensure the safety of Udhayanidhi Stalin and his family.
In response to the controversy, Udhayanidhi Stalin clarified that his comments were taken out of context and that he respects all religions. He called for peace and urged people not to make provocative statements that could incite violence.
The incident highlights the growing importance of responsible speech and the need for leaders and public figures to exercise caution when discussing sensitive religious matters. It also underscores the challenges faced by India in maintaining communal harmony in a diverse and religiously pluralistic society.
As the legal process unfolds and investigations continue, the nation will closely watch for developments in this volatile situation, hoping for a peaceful resolution to the controversy.
