Hanuman controversy at Aero India 2023 | HAL removes pic from tail of HLFT-42 aircraft

The Hindustan Aeronautics Limited removed a picture of Lord Hanuman from one of their aircraft at the Aero India 2023 following a controversy. HAL had showcased the full-scale model of its supersonic trainer aircraft HLFT-42 with a picture of Lord Hanuman on its tail. HAL earlier said they had decided to use Hanuman's picture to display the power of the aircraft, however the decision to remove it came after an internal discussion. Aero India 2023 is Asia's largest aero show and it was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The 5-day event will see participation of 809 companies and delegates from 98 countries.

being a SIKH I dont mind pic of Hanuman Ji on something that represents power. Its our shared history.
Hanuman was a strong man with principles!!
we all can learn a lot from his life!!

[KARMA-jruk]

They did see the small controversy but they did not see the happiness of the majority

[rajatnaskar]

The controversy makers don't know the power of Lord Hanuman.

Hanuman sat on Arjun's chariot during the Mahabharata war which gave him an edge over other warriors. He is "Pawanputra": Son of wind. All hail great Maruti.🙇‍♂️

who created this controversy?
who brought up this topic? |
who instructed to remove that log?
its these evil thoughts within our own citizens that made them remove the Hanuman
i really think it was cool to have that logo up there to portray the strength of HLFT-42.
Jai HIND.

Our dharm has always been science centric, nothing wrong in putting our deity photo

[Astrashastra]

Even muslim Indonesia isn't ashamed of its hindu past, and take great pride in their culture. What's wrong with indians!?

[chandravikramsingh]

Christians can be proud of their religion in their countries, so do Muslims but Hindus are always ashamed for their beliefs in their own country. This is our land, Lord Hanuman belongs to and this is our current condition.

Nothing wrong in having hanuman pictures...I am proud of my land and culture so are other indians

[saibalsahoo]

Why do remove the pic of lord Hanuman ji? Sanatan Dharma is our culture, please restore the beautiful picture of lord Hanuman ji, Jay Hindh 🇮🇳🙏❤️

[VikashKumar-lxio]

[krutikashah]

Proud to see something like this... Having picture of Bhagwan Hanuman was very much appreciated.... But only thing is that image should have been on front or side body part... Purposely somebody created issue out of jealousy... Hope poll would have been taken... 🇮🇳

[manjunatha]

This is India, a Hindu nation.who are those controversy creators.

[untoldhasa]

Not being able to put hunumanji logo in a so called hindu majority county. Imangine what will happen to us when we become minority

[AA-ssvo]

Lots of American Air defence aircraft etc have Native Indian names.

[MrVinnu]

Who are these miniscule minority people who are offended ? And they are more important than the Majority people living in India ryt ???

[laxeysingh]
