In Padiyur, Kangayam, over 300 families witnessed a unique show of communal harmony as Muslims donated land for a Hindu temple and participated in the temple's festival.


Tirupur: In a heartwarming display of communal harmony, the Muslim community in Padiyur, near Ottappaalayam in the Rose Garden area of Kangayam, has actively participated in the construction and festivities of a local Hindu temple.

This area, home to diverse religious communities, recently saw the completion of a Ganesh temple, significantly funded by a generous donation from the local Muslim Jamaath. This donation encompassed three cents of land worth six lakh rupees, initially under the ownership of the RMJ Rose Garden Muslim Jamaath.
