Samajwadi Party leader Swami Prasad Maurya has given another controversial statement on Monday. He wrote on the social media site that in any race and caste in the world, children are born with two hands, so how Lakshmi was born with four hands. If you have to do puja, then do it for your wife who takes care of the entire family with full devotion.
Congress leader Acharya Pramod Krishnam has expressed displeasure over his statement. He said that Swami Prasad has piles in his mouth. He requested Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to ban Swami Prasad from speaking.
While worshiping and honoring his wife on the occasion of Deepotsav, Maurya said that the child born in every religion, caste, race, color and country of the whole world has two hands, two legs, two ears, two eyes, two pores. Along with the nose, there is only a head, stomach and back.

If a child with four hands, eight hands, ten hands, twenty hands and a thousand hands has not been born till date, then how can Lakshmi be born with four hands? If you want to worship Goddess Lakshmi, then worship and respect your wife.
She is a goddess in true sense because she fulfills the responsibility of nurturing, happiness, prosperity, food and care of your family with great devotion.

He has also posted pictures on X in which he is seen making his wife wear a necklace, get her vaccinated and give a gift. In one picture, a small child is seen wiping his wife's feet with a towel. Let us tell you that Maurya had earlier raised questions on some quatrains of Ramayana and the court has also given him permission in this matter.
