This is the idol of Hanuman who helped Sri Ram to have victory over Ravana. You can read Hindu Epic Ramayana to know about Hanuman, Sri Ram, and Ravana. Hanuman is worshiped all over India. You can see Hanuman temples at several places in our country. He is the son of "Wind" which is also a Hindu god and known as Vayu Deva. It is said that Hanuman is still alive. I saw this idol inside a temple where several devotees come and worship him everyday.
