Union Minister Piyush Goyal launched a scathing attack on the DMK and INDIA Alliance following the Madras High Court's verdict upholding the lighting of the Deepam on Thiruparankundram hill. Welcoming the Division Bench's order delivered today, Goyal highlighted the court's damning observation that the state government's law and order apprehension was merely an 'imaginary ghost' created to obstruct the festival. He accused Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin and Udhayanidhi Stalin of harbouring a deep-seated 'anti-Hindu mindset' for consistently opposing the centuries-old practice and even attempting to impeach Justice GR Swaminathan for his earlier favourable ruling. Goyal termed the judgment a significant victory for Sanatan Dharma and issued a wake-up call to the people of Tamil Nadu to reject the 'appeasement politics' of the Congress and DMK-led alliance.
