Hindu mythological characters are making headlines more than ever these days. More precisely, Hanuman the half human half monkey and his cast are quite a tea-topic these days.
BJP leaders who assert themselves as the most educated and liberating Hindu preachers are now in a split, regarding the Hanuman’s religion and caste.
The Chief Minister, yes CM of Uttar Pradesh, believed that Hanuman was indeed a Dalit, as he used to dwell in jungles.
The controversy erupted by CM of UP didn’t even plain-ed down when another lawmaker of Bhartiya Janta Party, Bukkal Nawab has cleared that Hanuman was a Muslim.
Nawab backed his claim saying, ” Hanuman’s name is Islamic, we have these names, with the ending ‘man’, Rehman, Ramzam, Farman, Zeeshan, etc.”
A wonderful piece of work, right?
Not more than 20 hours after this statement came out, another leader has now affirmed that Hanuman was actually a Jatt.
One more leader from Uttar Pradesh and Narendra Modi’s BJP now, believe that Hanuman, the god of strength, was neither a Dalit nor Muslim but a Jatt.
Chaudhary Lakshmi Narayan Singh, has made a claim saying that Hanuman was by far a Jatt, he jumped in, into some unknown trouble, this is what Jatts do when they helped Ram and Sita.
Maybe some Sikh will come with an idea in coming days that he was a Jatt Sikh, as he was a “Mann”, which is a Gotra of Sikh Jatts.
