Indian government lodged a complaint on behalf of the Hindu community in Australia over a television advertisement featuring the God Ganesha enjoying lamb. In the advertisement, produced by a meat industry lobby group, Ganesha is one of a dozen religious figures seated at a raucous barbecue lunch. The depiction of elephant-headed Ganesha, who is widely considered to be vegetarian, was met with anger in Australia's Hindu community.
