Months after Udayanidhi Stalin stirred a row with his criticism of Sanatan Dharma, DMK Dharmapuri MP D N V Senthilkumar has dragged his party back into BJP line of fire, and INDIA alliance into hot waters, with his remarks on Hindi-speaking states.
Speaking on the Jammu and Kashmir Reservation (Amendment) Bill, 2023, in the Lok Sabha, Senthilkumar, 46, said: “People of this country should think that the power of this BJP is only winning elections, and mainly in the heartland Hindi states, what we generally call the ******** states. (The BJP) cannot come to south India. You see all the results of what happens in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra, Telangana and Karnataka. We are very strong there… You can never dream of setting foot there.”
