Mangalore, October 27: As part of Deepavali celebrations, Go-Puja (rituals for cows) was performed at the Mangaladevi Temple and Sri Sharavu Mahaganapathi Temple in the city on Thursday.

At Mahaganapathi Temple the programme was organised by Govanithashraya Trust, Pajeeru, Beejaguri. Local leaders of Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal including Sharan Pumpwell, Dr. Ananth Krishna Bhatt, Jagadeesh Shenava and Manohar were present.

The third day of Deepavali is being celebrated as the Go-Pooja, a day to show gratitude towards cows.

Cow or 'Gomatha' is inseparable from Hindu culture and tradition and is highly respected and worshiped. According to Hindu belief, cow can be called as man's second mother as he is fed by means of milk, butter, curd etc. continuously from childhood onwards.

According to Hindu Puranas all the three crore Hindu Gods are given positions in Kamadhenu's body, including in gomutra, horns, ears, milk, and so on.

Kasaragod, Feb 17: A Kerala Muslim couple conducted the wedding of their Hindu foster daughter at a Bhagavathi temple in Kerala, scripting another tale of communal harmony at Kasaragod.

The wedding ceremony was held on Sunday.

The woman Rajeshwari tied the knot with Vishnu Prasad in the presence of family and friends belonging to both Hindu and Muslim communities.

Abdulla and Khadeeja adopted Rajeshwari after her father who worked at Abdulla's farm died. Rajeshwari's mother also passed away when she was a child.

Rajeshwari grew up alongside Abdulla and Khadeeja's three sons- Shameem, Najeeb and Shereef.

Earlier in January this year, cutting across the lines of religion, a mosque in Kerala's Kayamkulam hosted a Hindu marriage ceremony.
