REVEALED: Controversial murals of lord hanuman to be removed from gujarat temple | Rare Historical Photos

A week after a controversy erupted over the “distorted depiction” of Lord Hanuman in murals at a Hanuman temple at Salangpur in Botad district of Gujarat, the matter was resolved on Monday after the temple managed by the Swaminarayan Vadtal Gadi Sansthan decided to remove the murals.

The murals depicted Lord Hanuman bowing down to Sahajanand Swami.

A press conference was held in Ahmedabad late on Monday evening to announce that the saints from Sanatana Dharma communities and Vadtal Gadhvi Sansthan met on Monday and discussed over the aspects related to the ongoing controversy and decided that the murals would be removed from Tuesday.
