It's funny but when the BKs first start evangelising in order to gather donations, after Lekhraj Kirpalani's money had run out, the told them *not* to go to the Gujerat first ... because it would be too easy.

From that time, Gujerati Sisters have tended to the 'number twos' or servants of the Sindis.

We know Indian politics are like all politics but even moreso but the BKs will court anyone that is likely to benefit their agenda and give them a stage to share it with them as a backscratching exercise ... they'll scratch yours, if you will scratch theirs ... and what does this photo say about them? Princesses' tiaras are obviously 'de la mode' within the BKWSU. They must have ordered a huge quantity.
Oh, and the BKs had their picture taken giving him another framed picture of their god. Service done, another PR piece for their magazine.

But the politicians of our country have ignored the Indian culture for the sake of their selfish interests of vote-bank politics. In such an atmosphere the organizations like Brahma Kumaris have sustained the values of Indian culture, said Mr Modi.
