Udhampur :-TDD,In a heartwarming display of communal harmony, five Muslim families from the small village of Panthal in Reasi District have been fostering unity by growing flowers and weaving garlands for Hindu temples in and around Udhampur district for over two decades.
These dedicated artisans have been spreading a powerful message of peace and brotherhood, particularly during Hindu festivals like Navratri and Diwali. One such artisan, Sadiq Mohammad, has been stationed outside the Pandav Mandir temple for nearly 18 years, creating beautiful flower garlands and selling them to Hindu devotees who come to offer prayers. Their selfless contribution to the community serves as a shining example of the enduring bond between Hindus and Muslims in India.TDD
