Now, Satyapal Singh claims Hanuman belonged to Aryan race

Satyapal Singh said, “I have clarified this fact, at that time there was Arya race and Hanuman was of the same Aryan race.”

New Delhi| The politics over the caste of Lord Hanuman has heated the political debate. During a campaigning for Rajasthan assembly elections, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that Lord Hanuman too was a Dalit. After Yogi Adityanath, Union Minister and MP from Bagpat district Satyapal Singh has described Lord Hanuman as Arya.

Satyapal Singh said that Hanuman belonged to Aryan race. “I have clarified this fact, at that time there was Arya race and Hanuman was of the same Aryan race,” Singh said. Ironically, the minister claims that during the times of Ram and Hanuman there was no caste system.

Yogi’s statement has already resulted in one FIR being filed against him for hurting Hindu sentiments. Bharatiya Janata Party MLA Surendra Singh, while reacting to the Yogi’s statement, said that no god should be linked to caste. Uttar Pradesh Governor Ram Naik had criticized this statement of the Chief Minister and said that keeping anyone’s emotions in front of people in a civilized manner is very important for democracy.
