[ The Commune ] Karnataka Congress Govt Withdraws Order To Remove Street Lights With Hindu Symbols In Hanuman’s Birthplace Gangavathi After Backlash From Hindus

The Karnataka Congress government has reversed its decision to remove religious symbols from newly installed streetlight poles in Gangavathi, Koppal district, following backlash from the Hindu community¹. The initial order, prompted by a complaint from the Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI), aimed to remove symbols like a bow and arrow, a mace, and the name of the deity Tirupati Thimmappa, citing concerns over communal harmony. However, strong opposition from Hindu organizations and residents led to the withdrawal of the order.
