India: A Hindu family fasting in Ramzan or 40 years

India: A Hindu family fasting in Ramzan or 40 years

3 Sep 2008, TNN

Hina Bhatt, the eldest daughter-in-law of the family, said, "After I got married, I willingly accepted the family ritual of fasting in the month of Ramzan. For me, it's like the shravan month. I normally fast during shravan and then in Ramzan." The most difficult part of a roza is not being able to drink water. Hema Bhatt, another daughter-in-law, said, "Being Brahmins, we completely believe in the oneness of God. During this month, we get the courage to complete these arduous fasts without much tribulations."
