A video of red-colored water seeping from an idol of Lord Hanuman in Bamurhiya village in Madhya Pradesh’s Satna district is going viral on Social media.
The video has started debate among the users and many have claimed that the substance is blood rather than water. While experts believe that blood coming out of Hanuman idol is only a superstition thing.
There are slight holes in the idols made of porous stone. Sandalwood, vermilion etc. are applied to the idols.
When water is offered to them, it goes inside through the holes. And when they are filled, then slowly the coating and water keep seeping. It looks like red water.
The incident came to light on Tuesday night. Soon after the video went viral, villagers thronged the spot to offer prayers to the idol.
Apart from this there were also rumours that the idols of Lord Ganesh and Shiva were drinking milk in many districts of Madhya Pradesh.
