Paragraph related to bhavishya purana is wrong and has no proper source[edit]

Paragraph related to bhavishya purana is wrong and has no proper source. Bhavishya purana itself is a fabricated book heavily modified in 18th century. So nothing in this book can be used as authentic writing. Its a well known fact for most hindus but vested interest still use such sources to pass false narrative as authentic. Please remove the whole para related to Bhavishya purana. Vishnunn (talk) 15:30, 6 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
