New Delhi, 6 July, 2023:
Mr. Kamran Siddiqui, General secretary of Real Cause (NGO), registered, in a letter sent to Prime Minister of India on 9th of May, 2023, strongly condemns the Ukraine Government for the tweet of Ukraine Defense Ministry Official Twitter account against the Hindus Goddess Mother Kali and in the letter to the Prime Minister, the Real Cause NGO, humbly requested the Prime Minister to direct the External Affairs Minister to call the Ukraine Ambassador in India and to seek an apology from him for the tweet of Ukraine Defense Ministry Official Twitter against the Hindus Goddess Mother Kali. The Ukraine Defense Ministry Tweet has hurt the feelings of Hindu community throughout the world.
In the letter Kamran Siddiqui said that the Defense Ministry of Ukraine's Tweet on 30th of April, shared a ‘work of art’ which showed Hindu goddess Kali in a rather awkward pose, somewhat resembling that of Marilyn Monroe's famous pose. The post on the micro-blogging site had two images with the caption, ‘work of art’. The first picture was of clouds in the sky. In the picture the vertical cloud was superimposed with a caricature of a woman who resembled legendary Hollywood actress Marilyn Monroe's hairstyle, with the face and body of Kali.
In the second picture the clouds and the caricature have been designed in such a way that it looks like Kali is trying to hold onto her skirt as it blows with the wind, much like Marilyn Monroe's signature pose.
Indian goddess Mother Kali has been caricatured on a propaganda poster by Ukraine. This is an assault on Hindu sentiments around the world.
The Ukraine government had been working against Indian interests for a long time.
Ukraine takes a consistent anti-India position at the United Nations (UN), Ukraine voted for UNSC sanctions against India after 1998 nuclear tests, Ukraine pushes for UN intervention on Kashmir after abrogation of Article 370, Ukraine in December 2019, Ukraine sells military equipment to Pakistan to use against India and Ukraine is purchasing arms from Pakistan.
Ukraine continues with military deals with Pakistan. Ukraine has now mocked Goddess Kali in a manner no foreign country has ever done.
