Siliguri (West Bengal) [India], April 11: Setting an example of communal harmony, Muslim youths distributed water bottles and hugged participants of the Ram Navami procession on Sunday in Siliguri, West Bengal.
The Muslim youths extended Ram Navami greetings to the people taking part in the procession.
The people who were part of the procession welcomed the distribution of bottles and thanked the Muslim youths for the gesture.
