Bengaluru: Karnataka Panchayat Raj and Rural Development Minister Priyank Kharge has challenged the critics of his comments on Sanatana Dharma, saying that he was a follower of the Constitution and the critics had no right to object to the fact, just as he had no right to question the faith others had in their respective religions.
Addressing reporters on Thursday, the minister said, "My statement on the matter is clear. I have not spoken against any religion and will not change my stand. I have merely stated that I have faith in the importance of equality and follow the principles in the Constitution of India. I also need not justify Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Stalin son Udhayanidhi Stalin's statement."
When asked about an FIR being filed against him in Uttar Pradesh, Kharge said that he was not worried. "I have nothing to do with it, regardless of whether an FIR is filed in Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh or Gujarat. They are welcome to file an FIR against me for merely stating that the Constitution is the religion I follow," the minister added.

Posting his allegation on his personal ‘X’ account on Saturday morning, Kharge said that he was referring to an issue that had not been dealt with decisively by Indian media houses.
“Here is a crucial story that the Indian media will never touch,” the minister has said, and clarified, “This so-called “body of individuals” has built a global network of over 2,500 affiliated organisations. Through these fronts, the RSS collects “guru dakshina” to fuel its divisive agenda. (sic)”
Kharge has further alleged, “The world’s largest NGO is running amok, laundering money and evading accountability.”
The minister added, “Here is a map of their organisational architecture of their “Vichar Parivaar.” https://rssproject.caravanmagazine.in / @thecaravanindia”
