'I'm The Grandson Of Kalaignar': Udhayanidhi Stalin Refuses To Apologise For Sanatan Dharma Remarks

Tamil Nadu's Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin has tacitly said he will not apologise for his comments on 'Sanatan Dharma'.

Addressing a gathering in Dindigul district after presiding over a wedding, Udhayanidhi Stalin stressed his comments were an extension of the work done by Dravidian icon Periyar who fought for the empowerment of women and against the denial of education to them.

"Periyar gave his voice to oppose (this practice). Anna Durai gave his voice, Karunanidhi gave his voice and I told the same. They've added what I didn't say and lied. Now cases have been filed not just in Tamil Nadu but in many places across India. They asked me to apologise in the court. I said what I said is said. I am Karunanidhi's grandson and will not apologise for anything", he said.
