**Denigrating picture of Deities on ‘rakhi’**

There is sudden surge in incidents denigrating Hindus’ seats of worship; on the occasion of ‘Raksha-bandhan’ !
Hindus are the only people in the world, who ridicule Deities on the occasion of their own festivals !

Pune : It is observed that in the markets at Tulshi Baug, market yard etc. in city, sale of ‘rakhis’ is going on large scale; but this year, denigrating pictures of Hindu Deities like Ganapati, Hanuman have been stuck on these ‘rakhis’. It is shown that the Deities are holding either a guitar or a stick in hand. (Anglicized education is the cause of total eradication of love and respect towards their Dharma amongst Hindus and therefore, they do not even realize denigration occurring through Deities’ pictures. It shows dire need of ‘Dharma-shikshan’ for Hindus ! – Editor, Dainik Sanatan Prabhat) These ‘rakhis’ which are made in India, are sold in market for Rs. 20 to Rs. 50/-. In some ‘rakhis’, there are small electric bulbs which cost Rs. 100/-. Many Hindus do not know that such use of Deities’ pictures is wrong; so they are buying these ‘rakhis’.
