Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin launched a scathing critique of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) at a Christmas event, accusing the party of detesting secularism and wanting it eradicated from the Indian Constitution.

Stalin lamented the BJP's vision for a homogenized nation with a single religion, language, and culture. He emphasized the significance of a united, diverse India, cautioning against the authoritarian future he believes BJP envisions.
