Ayodhya:
This temple town in Uttar Pradesh, where the Babri Masjid was
demolished 18 years ago, Muslim traders in a lane close to the
disputed site continue to weave garlands offered to Hindu deities,
setting a unique example of communal harmony.
Many shops run by Muslims on either side of the crowded lane on
the outer premises of Hanuman Garhi temple, just a few metres away
from the makeshift Ram Temple erected on the debris of Babri
Masjid, are packed with items used in temples and worshipping
Hindu deities.
