Muslim Community Upholds Ramleela Tradition in Ayodhya
In a Muslim-majority area of Ayodhya called Mumtaz Nagar, the local Muslim community has been putting on a play called Ramleela for over 60 years.
Ramleela is a play about the Ramayana, an important story for Hindus.
Muslims in the area organize, direct, and act in the play alongside Hindu performers.
They do this to celebrate their shared culture and create a sense of unity, showing that different religious groups can live and work together harmoniously.
The Ramleela tradition is upheld in Mumtaz Nagar, Ayodhya by local Muslims.
The event is organized by the 'Ramleela Ramayana Samiti', a Muslim-led committee.
Muslims and Hindus collaborate in the production and performance of the Ramleela.
The tradition has been ongoing for 62 years, promoting interfaith unity.
The community views the Ramleela as a way to preserve cultural harmony.
