India does it again. Indian diversity evident in full brightness! Godhra in Gujarat, the very place of cause of one of the worst Hindu-Muslim riots in the history, post-partition. This very place recently wonderful mixing of the two religions so commonly seen all over India. The same two religions which fight each other as arch enemies also love each other as siblings.
This year the Muslim festival of Eid-E-Milad and Hindu festival of Holi were one after the other. Hindus and Muslims in Godhra greeted each other on those occassions. At Dakor near Godhra, Muslim organizations had open centres to distribute water and drinks to devotees in the Shri Krushna procession.
The very day also marked the eighth anniversary of the ghastly Godhra rail-carnage. Muslims had organised a social marriage ceremony. Many Hindus not only attended the function but also participated as parents of girls known to them. They did this for nearly 34 girls. Gifts worth nearly hundred thousand rupees were also distributed by Hindu brothern.
Thank you folks, you have blessed the country by your act !
