A young man from Karnataka’s Karwar city recently chopped off his finger as an offering to Goddess Kali to pray for Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s victory in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
Arun Vernekar, who is known for his love and devotion to the Prime Minister, made the unusual sacrifice to pray for the BJP’s win and a third term for Modi.
According to The Hindu, the young man wanted to draw blood from his finger to offer to the deity for the prayer but in the process, he accidentally chopped off a part of his left hand forefinger with a machete
“I wanted to collect some blood, but the force was stronger than I thought and I chopped off a part of my finger. Now, I will consider it as an offering to the Goddess,” the publication quoted Vernekar as saying.
The family members of the man rushed the victim to the hospital, however, doctors said it was impossible to fix the finger and he was advised to sever it completely.
Not just that, he also wrote a plea on the walls of his house with his blood, beseeching Goddess Kali to protect ‘Modi baba’. An ardent supporter of PM Modi, Vernekar considers him the greatest leader and inscribed “Modi baba sabse mahan” on the wall, along with “Maa Kali Mata, Modi baba ka raksha karo.”
For the unversed, Vernekar earlier built a temple dedicated to Prime Minister Modi in his own home and holds regular special prayers in his honour.
While the family members rushed the victim to the hospital, doctors said it was impossible to fix it and he was advised to sever it completely.
In 2014, when Narendra Modi fought his first election as BJP’s Prime Ministerial candidate, Vernekar had written a letter to the public using his blood.
