Babu Khan said, ‘When I first went to get the Kawad, there was a lot of fighting in the house. I managed to explain the family somehow. At that time, after coming from the pilgrimage, I performed Jalabhishek in the Mahadev temple. The next day, when I went to pray in the mosque, I was boycotted and thrown out. For this, I fought a legal battle and many who boycotted me were sent to jail. Now I follow the routine of offering namaz in the village Mosque at 5 a.m and then cleaning the Shiva temple. I have not renounced Islam, but I have faith in Kawad Yatra. So I go to Haridwar every year’.

Editorial Viewpoint

• Why don’t the so-called secularists and liberals preach secularism to those Muslims who oppose participation in the Kawad Yatra ? Or do they think it is only for tolerant Hindus ?
• Hindus participate in Muslim festivals for Iftar, but the fact is that Muslims never participate in Hindu festivals with minor exceptions, rather they attack the religious processions of Hindus !
