Some 3,000 people including Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs joined Christians this year in celebrating Easter at an event in central India’s Bhopal city aimed at promoting religious tolerance.

Archbishop Leo Cornelio of Bhopal was the main organizer of the inter-religious gathering in the capital of Madhya Pradesh State on Easter Sunday.

“Religious fanaticism is not restricted to one country, but has now become a major concern for peace-loving people across the globe, irrespective of their religion,” he told the gathering.
