Hindu nationalists go to court over lion named after Muslim emperor being kept with lioness named ‘Sita’ in India
capcool, 
Forgive me for my lack of comprehension, but does the lion know that it is called a ‘Lion’ ?
ARk, What does it mean
Pons_Aelius, Sita is a Hindu name. I assume they are upset that the Muslim male lion has a partner who has a Hindu name.
Rhynoplaz, She could have converted, or she could just be a fucking lion. It’s really hard to say.
EssentialCoffee, Sita is a Hindu goddess and Rama’s consort.
Akbar, it looks like conquered a lot of India and seems to have it out for the ‘infidels’, presumably non-Islamic Indians.
Given the history between the two groups in the region, I can understand having a cultural dislike for the symbolism.
