After Riots, Rajasthan Government's Hindutva Pitch On Hanuman Jayanti | Read

In what is being seen as the Ashok Gehlot-led Rajasthan government's Hindutva pitch, special prayers and sundarkand path were organised in two temples of every district in the state on the occasion of Hanuman Jayanti (birth anniversary of Hindu God Hanuman). Earlier, Ramayan recitals were organised by the state government on the occasion of Ramnavmi (birth anniversary of Lord Ram). Both of these events were held by the state government's Devasthan department - the department that oversees temples and religious trusts in the state.
