Speaking about 'India vs Bharat' row, Thakur said that Bharat has been there for eternity and opposition should clarify what problem they have with the 'Bharat' name. While the minister ducked the question over any plan to bring a bill or resolution in Parliament related to 'Bharat' nomenclature, he said that one should not think twice before taking the name of Bharat or India as we all are 'Bharat Vasi'.




When asked about Udhayanidhi Stalin's 'anti-sanatan' statement, Anurag Thakur said that the UPA parties are 'Sanatan virodhi' but no one can destroy Sanatan Dharma. 



The union minister also ruled out early possibility of the Lok Sabha elections saying that such speculations show nervousness of opposition parties.
