PATNA: Udaynidhi Stalin, the son of Chief Minister M.K. Stalin and a Tamil Nadu Minister, has been summoned once again by a Patna court. This comes in response to a complaint filed against him for his derogatory remarks comparing Sanatan Dharma to diseases like dengue, malaria, and corona.
The MP-MLA court in Patna has directed Udhayanidhi Stalin to personally appear before the court on February 13. The remarks were made by him during a public meeting in his own state.
After his controversial statements, lawyer Dr Kausalendra Narayan filed a case in the CJM’s court in Patna. Later, the case was transferred to the MP-MLA court. On December 6, the court issued a summon to Udhayanidhi Stalin under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). A hearing was conducted in the court on Monday as well, and the fresh summons were issued.
