In a video that went viral, VCK functionary Ezhilarasu can be heard threatening to demolish the Sankara Mutt.
It seems that the season is open on Sanatan Dharma. After Tamil Nadu Chief Minister’s son, MP Stalin’s son Udhayanidhi, reprimanded him, DMK ally Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) apparently made disparaging remarks.
A video has gone viral of VCK functionary Ezhilarasu in which the leader can be heard threatening to demolish the Sankara Mutt.
The Sankara Mutt of Kanchipuram in Tamil Nadu is sacred to Hindus.
In the video shared on Fortunately, the police protect him.
“I have a duty to give this warning,” added the VCK leader.
Spokesperson for @thirumaofficial VCK, an ally of the INDIA alliance, says they have come to destroy the holy Sankara which is sacred to Hindus. He says that without police intervention, they will make sure to ruin the damn mutt. Freedom of expression on #Hindu hate in TN! pic.twitter.com/MJhwEWpIjJ

“Fortunately, the police are there to protect us. Thanks to police protection, your religion has been saved. Without them, at that point, we would have razed it to rubble,” he said.
VCK is part of the opposition alliance – INDIA
Meanwhile, speaking to IndiaToday, Ezhilarasu claimed that his speech had been changed. “For hundreds of years we have been oppressed. Even today, while we protest democratically, we do not have the right to speak. I have not spoken separately about the targeting of Sankara Mutt,” he said.
