When Father François Laborde died at the age of 93 in India s Kolkata s city on Christmas Day, many close to him recalled his often-repeated words that the Indian poor evangelized him to be a better Christian.
After his arrival in India in 1965, the priest of the Prado Institute dedicated his life to the poorest, the outcasts, and the handicapped youth of Kolkata (formerly Calcutta), the capital of West Bengal state in eastern India. I had gone to India to evangelize the poor, but it was they who evangelized me, he used to tell his confreres and friends.
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee inaugurated Calcutta’s biggest public Christmas festival on Monday and said a “typical type of religious hatred” is brewing across India, threatening “secularism” and “the Constitution” of the country.
“We love our Constitution. It is our pillar. But can you tell me whether this Constitution is being thoroughly nurtured, accepted? And in real sense, is secularism in India (being nurtured)? No. I am sorry to say, it is a typical type of religious hatred, policies going on,” Mamata said at the opening of the 10th edition of the Christmas festival at Allen Park on Park Street.
