They had come to attend the annual fair of the Matua religious sect at Thakurnagar, about 3km from Kaya, and spent the night at Mandal’s place. They had simple vegetarian meals. “Our connection is greater than blood relations. We are followers of the same path,” said Mandal with a hearty smile, speaking of his guests. It is common among the Matua communi...

The 11-second clip shows PM Modi on the stage during a rally where he is seen signalling a man offering him the Ganesh idol to step back. A caption on Facebook reads, "Imagine if Rahul Gandhi had refused to take Lord Ganesh instead of Modi, today the entire media and BJP's supporters would hav...
