When Indian television news broadcasts appealed for blood donors on Wednesday, a day after the blasts, Yaseef Khan rushed to help.
"How can I sit at home when people are crying for blood?" Khan said.
He was one among many Hindus and Muslims joining to give blood. Both Muslims like Khan & Hindus united on Wednesday to help victims of the bomb blasts, offering the use of their mobile phones, distributing food & fruit juices as relatives swarmed hospitals of Jaipur from the early hours of the morning along with distributing free medicine to those who cant afford it (through voluntary organisations).
"We managed to save at least 150 lives last night because of help from these unknown people," Rakesh Sharma, an orthopaedic surgeon said.
The bombs are thought to be done with the intent to cause hatred between the two faiths followers. "Bombs cannot divide the Hindus and Muslims, it never succeeded and people should know that it is not going to work," Sohail Illyas, a Muslim man.
Hindu's and Muslims were killed in the attacks, which the PM of India & Muslim organisations have condemned. These attacks violated the Quranic principle of the sanctity of life.
