Anger As Republican Candidate Declares Hanuman Statue In TX Un-ChristianSUGARLAND, TX -A Texas Republican running for office has stirred controversy over remarks he made about a 90-foot statue of Lord Hanuman here. “Why are we allowing a false statue of a false Hindu God to be here in Texas? We are a CHRISTIAN nation,” Duncan wrote, sharing a video of the statue. The Hindu American Foundation (HAF) denounced the comments as “anti-Hindu and inflammatory” and called on the Republican Party of Texas to take disciplinary action. The statue is not only a symbol of devotion but also of unity, harmony, and inclusiveness, core tenets of the Hindu faith.
