After Bajrang Dal furore, Congress promises programmes around Hanuman
Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president DK Shivakumar, speaking to the media in Mysuru, sought to clarify that he was as much a devotee of Bajrang Bali (Lord Hanuman) as anyone else and word the Hanuman tilak. “Is there not a difference between Bajrang Bali and Bajrang Dal,” he asked in a bid to clear the air and lob the issue at the doorstep of the BJP for what he called use of the Lord’s name for political gains.
