Muslim and Hindu devotees soaked in Lord Ram’s love

Hindu and Muslim devotees across India pray hard during the occasion of Ram Navami.

This is why India is a secular country. At a time when 'divisive forces' are trying to break the country's secular fabric, once again Hindu and Muslim devotees came together and celebrated Ram Navami with great festivities on Wednesday.

Here we bring you some lovely images-mostly of women followers of Lord Ram-praying hard during Ram Navami...
