Following the registration of an FIR against Tamil Nadu minister Udhayanidhi Stalin and Karnataka minister Priyank Kharge in connection with their remarks on 'Sanatana Dharma', Kharge has clarified his stance. He emphasized that his statement was not meant to offend any religious sentiments, explaining, "I said that any religion that discriminates between human beings is not a religion. I follow the Constitution; my religion is the Constitution. If they want to file an FIR against me or arrest me, it is up to the individuals, I really don't care."
