From decoration to the set-up we all work together on all aspects. We believe that there is no religion or caste in celebrating the festivals. We have been doing this for around 15 years and we want our children to continue the same. We want that\u00a0Hindu-Muslim\u00a0live affectionately all across the country in this same way.”<\/p>\n

If everyone in society lives cordially with love and affection than only nation will progress. We have been celebrating\u00a0Janmashtami\u00a0in this way for the last 15 years. Everyone works together for this occasion,” he told
