If you are one of those longing to get a visa to fly abroad, then instead of standing in a long queue outside the visa office, try standing in a queue outside the 'Sidhdheshwer Chamatkarik Hanuman Temple'. Locals believe that the God in the temple helps all those who aspire for a visa.

The temple is located in the city of Ahmedabad in the state of Gujarat, India. All you have to do is bring your visa documents to the temple and wait for your turn to keep your plea in front of 'Visa Hanuman'.

The temple is 400 years old, where hundreds of devotees throng at the temple to pray for a visa. Every Saturday about 4,000 devotees arrive at the temple, out of which 50 percent are those, who come to pray for a visa.

The devotees have to come with their papers and passports, which are laid at the feet of the god by the priest. The priest then asks the devotee to recite a prayer of Lord Hanuman. The locals believe that if the prayer is done with true heart, then the devotee will get his visa within a month. Apart from the city, people from all over the state come to pray for their visas. Now, thats one belief that is deep.
