Mayhem in Orissa

The killing of Swami Lakshmananda Saraswati -- a senior leader of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad in Kandhamal district of Orissa unleashed such a flurry of communal violence against the Christians in the area that the result was sheer mayhem and chaos. People were burnt alive and houses and churches razed to the ground, with a brutality that was chilling. I went across to Orissa, met some of the survivors housed in relief camps as well as a host of other people -- to understand why there is so much hatred in the name of religion.
