He was with a stick and black paint color which he applied over the controversial murals. Police nabbed him with minimum efforts. Anger is boiling among large number of Hindus across Gujarat and Sanatani sadhus over distortion of Hanuman ji in murals placed by Vadtal branch of Swaminarayan sect on the platform of recently unveiled ‘King of Salangpur’ statue. The mandir management has now decided to place barricades to prevent more agitators from going near the controversial murals.
