Uttar Pradesh Minister Satish Sharma faced massive flak from the Opposition today after a video of him washing his hands at a Shivling in Barabanki's Lodheshwar Mahadev temple surfaced online. The video showed the Minister of State for Food and Civil Supplies washing his hands in the 'argha', or the base of the Shivling, with the help of a priest. The Congress and the Samajwadi Party have demanded the minister's resignation for "insulting Sanatan dharma".
