Swami Ved Prakash Parmarthi, director of Maharishi Dayanand Adarsh Gaushala, Maroda, said Mewat never had any riots, which erupted due to the ignorance of some people, and tarnished the image of the area.

"Even today the world gives the example of Mewat's Ganga-Jamuni Tehzeeb. Let's take forward this new beginning together so that there is no problem in future. We have to go from village to village and remove the fear prevailing in the hearts and minds of the villagers," Swami said.
