“M. K. Stalin said that he insulted Sanatana culture and Hindu deities during his tenure on the instructions of Indian National Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.”
No verified evidence shows M. K. Stalin said he insulted Sanatana culture or Hindu deities on Rahul Gandhi’s instructions. The documented controversy was about Udhayanidhi Stalin’s remarks, not an admission by M. K. Stalin. Political accusations tying DMK to Congress are not proof, and available reporting indicates Congress publicly distanced itself from the row.
“M. K. Stalin, the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, promised a 5% rise in pension for Tamil Nadu Government pensioners in the 2021 Assembly election manifesto.”
No credible source supports the claim that M. K. Stalin promised a 5% pension rise for Tamil Nadu Government pensioners in the 2021 Assembly election manifesto. Multiple authoritative outlets consistently report that the DMK's 2021 manifesto pension pledge was to restore the Old Pension Scheme, with the only percentage-based promise being a 10% additional pension for those above 70 years of age. The specific "5% rise" figure appears entirely fabricated.
