One of the UK's largest Hindu temples has urged worshippers not to donate any new 5-pound notes after it emerged they contain traces of animal fat. Hindu Forum of Britain (HFB), an umbrella group of Hindu organisations and temples in the UK, has called on the Bank of England to withdraw the new 5-pound note as well. "Saving and sharing wealth (the Goddess of fortune) in currency tainted by unnecessary harm to animals is somewhat of an oxymoron," said Shree Gauridas, spiritual commissioner of HFB and a director of the UK's ISKCON temple. Donations are taken at the Shree Sanatan Mandir temple for charitable causes in the community. The city of Leicester has one of the largest populations of Hindus in England and is famous for hosting the biggest Diwali celebrations outside India.
