NEW DELHI: Tamil Nadu deputy chief minister Udhayanidhi Stalin on Friday responded to Pawan Kalyan 's recent warning with a cryptic remark. "Let's wait and see," he said when asked about Pawan Kalyan's warning to those opposing Sanatana Dharma . Kalyan, the deputy CM of Andhra Pradesh and the Janasena party chief, had cautioned that anyone attempting to eradicate 'Sanatana Dharma' would face consequences.

Pawan Kalya made the comments during the " Varahi Declaration " event in Tirupati on Thursday. Referring to the comments that had been made by Tamil Nadu Deputy CM Udhayanidhi Stalin, Pawan Kalyan in Tamil said, "Don't say that Sanatana Dharma is like a virus and it would destroy." "Whoever said this let me tell you sir. You can not wipe out Santana dharma. If anyone tries to wipe out Santana dharma let me tell you from the feet of lord Balaji you will be wiped out."

He also said a ' Sanatana Dharma Protection Board ' should be established at both the national and state level to oversee the implementation of this Act. "Annual funds must be allocated to support this board and its activities," he added.

Pawan Kalyan further advocated for the implementation of sanatana dharma certification. "There should be non-cooperation with individuals or organisations that defame or spread hatred against Sanatana Dharma. Sanatana Dharma Certification must be implemented to ensure the purity of materials used in offerings and prasadam at temples...I want to communicate to the highest judiciary that he is not innocent," he said.

Meanwhile, last year, Udhayanidhi Stalin, son of Tamil Nadu chief minister MK Stalin , said 'Sanatana Dharma' should be eradicated, comparing it to diseases like dengue and malaria. His comments had sparked a political controversy. Udhayanidhi later clarified his stance, saying he did not call for genocide but criticised 'Sanatana Dharma' for dividing people by caste and religion.
