Christians rally for graveyard in Sri Ganganagar

A petition to the Chief minister Shri Ashok Gehlot was handed over through the district collector Shri Ashutosh Pendonkar for allotment of land for the graveyard on July 24,2009. A peaceful march by hundreds of Christians exhibited the urgent need for a graveyard. There are about 8400 Christians in Ganganagar of all denominations who face difficulty for the funeral and have to travel to Bikaner about 250 kms away for burial ground. Seventh-Day Adventist Church was well represented by Mr Tarsem Gill, Church Pastor Sri Ganganagar.
