Whoops

This image appeared in an Indian spelling book, published by a company in New Delhi, to illustrate the letter I for Idol.

It was picked up in a convent school in Meghalaya State, India where the 72% of the population is Christian.

The State Government acted immediately and has started seizing all copies of the book.

And the publishers of the book are now almost certainly out of the school textbook business.

The thing is of course it is entirely possible the people who produced the book lifted the image from the internet, blissfully unaware of its significance.
