A controversial Hindu painting on a Loudoun County driveway has been covered. Ram Balasubramanian has covered the painting in black paint and sent a new picture of the driveway to his homeowner's association, LoudounExtra reported. Balasubramanian called it a temporary solution, as the outline of the painting is still visable. In order to welcome guests to a thread ceremony for his 14-year-old son, Balasubramanian painted a kolam on his driveway, which upset his homeowners' association.
