At least they left out Buddha, who in some Indian circles (but
not all, 
as I understand it anyway) is also a Hindu deity. 
However, will we be surprised when the next offering is Tibetan 
Buddhist deities? or Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese Buddhist
deities? 
To be followed by, the lucky laughing monk Hotei or the lucky cat

images? Maybe some lucky calligraphy in Chinese characters? 
The possibilities are mind-blowing.
