A Texas Republican leader, Alexander Duncan, has sparked widespread outrage after criticizing the 90-foot ‘Statue of Union’ in Sugar Land, Texas, calling the Hindu deity Hanuman a “false god.” He claimed the United States is a Christian nation, prompting backlash from the Hindu American Foundation and social media users across the country.
The Statue of Union, unveiled in 2024, is one of the tallest Hindu monuments in the United States and was envisioned by Sri Chinnajeeyar Swamiji. Duncan’s remarks have ignited debate over religious freedom, cultural respect, and the role of faith in America’s public spaces.
