Here is an excerpt from an email I got from Dr Mangalwadi
Thank you for your prayers for Orissa: major Hindu groups have called off the agitation planned for Christmas Day. This is a huge relief. However, some Christians are still cautious because (a) not all players are a party to the cancellation, (b) grassroots level groups are still capable of creating large scale chaos, and (c) some extremist groups would like to embarrass the relatively moderate Hindu leaders who called for "reconciliation and dialogue."
Continue to pray for lasting peace.
