Annamalai has said that the people of Tamil Nadu could easily understand the intention of DMK in speaking against Sanatana Dharma.
The BJP state president said that the Dravidar Kazhagam president, K.Veeramani had equated Sanatana Dharma to Hinduism while the DMK leaders, including Udhayanidhi Stalin were stating that Sanatana Dharma and Hinduism were different.
