Original Note:
The symbol is not a Swastika, but a Nazi "Hakenkreuz" which means 'hooked cross' in German. A Swastika is a Auspicious Symbol used in Hinduism, Jainism & Buddhism. Similar symbols are used all over asia. Calling the Hakenkreuz as Swastika is disrespect to indian culture. https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20210816-the-ancient-symbol-that-was-hijacked-by-evil
