[tn morons...what a zoo!!]
yup... [Incredible India! Infants thrown off roofs A village in Solapur, Maharashtra, has a dangerous tradition of throwing newborns from a height of 50 feet onto a sheet, which is held by devotees. The infants are thrown off the roof of the Baba Sheikh Umar Saheb Dargah in Musti village in Solapur. This is an age-old tradition practiced by couples who are blessed with a child after taking a vow at the dargah. The devotees also believe that this ritual is good for the health of the child. `People have been following this tradition for almost 500 years now. They believe that if they throw the child from the roof then it does good to him or her,` deputy sarpanch of Musti village, Ravikiran Mehta said. ] |
