The Haryana government has banned in official communication the use of expression ‘Gorakh Dhanda’, generally used to describe unethical practices.
The decision was taken by Chief Minister Manohar Lal after a delegation of the Gorakhnath community met him, according to an official statement on Wednesday.
Mr. Lal said Gorakhnath was a saint and using this term hurts sentiments of his followers.
Therefore, the use of the word in whatsoever context has been completely banned, the CM said according to the statement.
