    The Conference organized by the "Religious India" is a good initiative. The large congregation of Nuns that took part in the Conference with the presence of Bishop Aloysius was indeed noteworthy.


    The Nuns of India are well educated. They have a great deal to contribute for our Schools and Colleges as well as the general public. Any topic on Religion has to be cautiously shared with others so long as everyone is kept happy and everyone comes forward to share their own verdict in a fair and clear manner.


    Let there be many Conferences of this kind so that many others can come forward and table their points of view for many others to listen and learn. India is a place where secular values prevail so vividly. The educated and moderate people of India know how to handle the topics as delicately as possible so that everyone can benefit from the gathering.
