INDIA-RELIGION-HINDUISM-VISA

Indian Hindu devotees arrive to offer prayers to Lord Balaji, known as the 'Visa God', at the Chilkur Balaji Temple in Rangareddy district, some 30 kms from Hyderabad, on April 29, 2017. President Donald Trump will certainly despise this scene: Hundreds of Indians gather daily at a Hindu temple in southern India as they pray to get their wish granted -- a US visa. The 500-year-old Chilkur Balaji temple dedicated to Lord Balaji -- a re-incarnation of Hindu god Vishnu -- near Hyderabad city, has long been a one-stop solution for highly-qualified prospective Indian immigrants who had failed to get their passports stamped. / AFP PHOTO / NOAH SEELAM (Photo credit should read NOAH SEELAM/AFP via Getty Images)
