Former cricketer and current politician Chetan Chauhan recently said that lord Hanuman was a sportsperson and that his caste should not be discussed.
UP Min & Former India cricketer Chetan Chauhan in Amroha yesterday: Hanuman ji kushti ladte the, khiladi bhi the, jitne bhi pehlwan log hain unki pooja karte hain, main unko wahi manta hun, humare isht hain, bhagwan ki koi jaati nahi hoti. Main unko jaati main nahi baantna chahta pic.twitter.com/Q1lburIFMu

His remarks came in response to the UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath starting a debate over lord Hanuman’s ‘caste’ with his controversial remark, to which Chauhan responded by saying:
I believe that he (Lord Hanuman) was a sportsman who use to wrestle with his enemies. All the sportsmen of our country worship him as they require power and energy like him to emerge victorious. The players do not worship him because of his caste.
Now, this was too much for the Twitterati to handle, who hit wicket with every response.
😂😂😂😂 sportsperson. Wow. He was an engineer according to me. Doctor according to my friend. Keep going. #Hanuman
