With deep agony and anguish, I share with you the most pathetic condition of our fellow Christians in India, particularly, the States of Orissa, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, etc., where large scale organised violence against them.
Orissa, the scene of the burning alive of Graham Staines with his two innocent children, continues to perpetuate violence against Christians. The violence against Christians during Christmas 2007 left more than 100 churches and innumerable houses of Christians destroyed, several of them are still in ruins, waiting to be rebuilt. Within a few months, again yet there is another calamity of organised violence more severe in intensity and extent, in the words of our Prime Minister, “a shame on the nation.”
