Right-wing group Hindu Sena will celebrate Donald Trump’s birthday in a grand fashion at New Delhi’s Jantar Mantar on Tuesday.

A colourful open invite sporting the face of Trump surrounded by balloons, said “Join us and let’s celebrate the birthday of the saviour of humanity, the Republican Presidential Nominee of the United States of America”.

Speaking to ANI, Hindu Sena national president Vishnu Gupta said that a special seven kilo cake and a grand orchestra had been arranged for the event.

“We are celebrating his special day, despite the recent tragedy in Orlando because, he is taking a stand against Islamic terror and that is very important to India, as we have been plagued from this kind of terrorism. Only one man can save us all from this epidemic and that is him. I pray that he wins with heavy majority and fulfils his promise of wiping Islamic terror off the face of the earth,” Gupta said.

Last month, the Hindu Sena had organised a ‘hawan’ -- a holy fire ritual -- with prayers for Trump’s victory in the Presidential race, as a priest chanted hymns and members of the group made offerings to fire, holding posters of the Republican presidential candidate, with “We love Trump” written in bold letters.

Trump has won both supporters and detractors for his blunt talk and hardline proposals, including a proposed ban on Muslims entering the United States.

The billionaire real estate developer has positioned himself as the answer to growing Islamic radicalism across the world.
