The installation of Sai Baba idols in temples in Varanasi has sparked a controversy, with Hindu organisations calling for their removal claiming that Sai Baba was a Muslim and had no connection with Sanatan Dharma. This has resulted in the removal of idols from 14 temples, with more to follow. While some argue that there is no objection to the worship of Sai Baba, there is opposition to his idols being installed in temples.
