Villagers celebrate Donald Trump’s victory at ‘Trump temple’ in Jangaon

As Donald Trump was set to become President of the US for the second time, a temple built by a man in a Telangana village in 2019 came into focus once again, with villagers celebrating the leader’s victory by garlanding his statue.

Relatives of Bussa Krishna, who had installed the statue at his house in Konne village in Jangaon district and was regularly



worshipping him, and some other villagers cleaned the statue and garlanded it.

Krishna died of cardiac arrest in October 2020 at the age of 33. He had turned his puja room into a temple for Donald Trump in 2018.

Like an ardent devotee, he had installed the photograph of Trump, then US President, in his room and worshipped it daily.
