Ayodhya, India
Hanumangarhi is a temple of Lord Hanuman in Ayodhya. More than 70 steps lead to the main Hanuman temple which is one of the most popular temples of Lord Hanuman in North India.
The graffiti on the wall on the top right of the steps refers to the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) (translation: All Indian Student Council) is a right-wing all India student organisation affiliated to the Hindu nationalist Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).
Various branches of the ABVP have reportedly been involved in riots against Muslims since 1961. However, in the 1970s, the ABVP also increasingly took on issues concerning the lower middle classes like corruption and government inertia that were also being taken on by communist student groups.
Ayodhya is, in addition to being a famous pilgrimage site for Hindus, a politically polarized community. Ayodhya is a city of primarily Hindu believers; while the neighboring town's residents in Faizabad are Moslem.
