|January 28, 2025
The Supreme Court on Monday refused to hear three petitions seeking criminal action against Tamil Nadu Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin for his controversial 'eradicate Sanatan Dharma' remark in September 2023.
"The writ petition under Article 32 of the Constitution could not be maintained," the bench of justices Bela M Trivedi and Prasanna B Varale said, declining to examine the pleas.
The petitioners B Jagannath, advocate Vineet Jindal and Sanatan Suraksha Parishad withdrew their pleas after the top court rejected their pleas.
