Will Pull Out Their Tongues: Union Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat Warns Those Insulting Sanatana Dharma

The controversy over Tamil Nadu minister Udhayanidhi Stalin's remarks refuses to die down as Union minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat has said anyone who speaks against the Sanatan Dharma would have his tongue pulled out and his eyes gouged out. A video of Shekhawat's purported threatening remarks during a public rally in poll-bound Rajasthan went viral on social media.

In the video, Shekhawat can be heard saying, “We have to stand up to the challenge. We will pull out the tongue of anyone who speaks against Sanatan. We will also gouge out those eyes raised against Sanatan.”

“We challenge that no person who speaks against Sanatan will be able to maintain political position and power in this country. They try to attack our culture and history,” he said at a rally in Barmer last week during BJP's Parivartan Yatra.
