Amid the ongoing Hanuman Chalisa row in Maharashtra, Fahmida Hasan Khan, the working president of North Mumbai district of the NCP, has written a letter to Home Minister Amit Shah, seeking permission to chant prayers of every religion in front of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Lok Kalyan Marg residence in the national capital.

In an exclusive interview to mid-day.com, Khan said, "My motive is to promote communal harmony in the country. Though I have sent the letter in my personal capacity, I have sent the same to my party office as well. If I do not receive a reply from the home ministry, I will write to Shah again, because if the Hindutva agenda can help reduce inflation, unemployment and starvation, then why not?"
