In this Special Report, India Today’s Akshita Anandagopal details the constitutional showdown in Tamil Nadu over the Thiruparankundram Karthikai Deepam festival. The conflict escalated after the DMK-led government defied a Madras High Court order by Justice G.R. Swaminathan to light the lamp at the ‘Deepathun’ pillar. In retaliation, the INDIA bloc has moved an impeachment motion against the judge, signed by 120 MPs. BJP MP Anurag Thakur condemned the state government, stating, ‘One state in India has become a symbol of anti-sanatan dharma.’ The programme also highlights the support for the judge from 50 former jurists who termed the motion a weaponization of the Constitution.
