THE SORROW OF BANARAS

Banaras, the holiest of the holy place for all Hindus. It is said that a single journey  to this holy place wipes all the sins that one might accumulate over a life time. Kasi is one of the most revered places of worship for Hindus. Banaras also has a another face, the face of Hindu Muslim unity. The most famous son of Banaras, Ustad Bismillah Khan is known all over the world and he is also one of the regular players in the banks of the Ganges on all holy occasions. Hindus and Muslims had lived amicably here for thousands of years. In many ways Banaras represents the genesis of the great nation called India.It is this fabric that the perpetuators of the horrific bomb blast had tried to hurt.  The unfortunate bomb blasts that ripped through Banaras last week killed a six month old girl child.
