Dhankhar Yells At DMK MP Abdulla For 'Echoing Separatists Under The Garb Of Periyar's Quote'

High drama erupted in the Rajya Sabha over DMK MP M. Mohamed Abdulla's remarks during a debate after the Supreme Court's verdict on the abrogation of Article 370. Abdulla quoted Periyar to say that each race has the right to self-determination. Abdulla said Periyar's view applies to the people of J&K, which the Rajya Sabha Chair opposed. The "outrageous" statement led to a massive uproar and was expunged. However, Modi ministers led by Amit Shah lashed out at the DMK and its ally Congress.
