We have sufficient info on the matter. We are not happy that some people do not hesitate to do things which causes offence to different religions. Recent examples of Goddess Lakshmi in a Bikini or a Radio host abusing River Ganges are something which we have not been happy about.

John – Have you seen the play?, Is it a religious play? As I understand, it is not a religious symposium where the matter of Hitler Swastika is being discussed about.
My guess is that it is a play to entertain. Our Lord Ganesha – is not there to be ridiculed at or to entertain you.
If you do not have any belief in Lord Ganesha – you have no right to use him. It offends those who have their belief in him.
