Hordes of Hindus , tribals , a lot of Sunni Muslims , a few Sikhs and a huge contingent of Shias from all over India including Iran land up at Hussain Tekr Jaorah for Chehlum celebrations and mourning for Imam Hussain.
Hussain Tekri Jaorah means different things to different people ,and you cant change the mind set of people of varies cultural hues ,for some it is a Mela or Fair, for some who believe in Dargah its is a Urus for the possessed it is a holistic healing pace.
Pick pocketeers thieves con man all come to Hussain Tekri Jaorah.
The Shias have one aspect in mind only that is Ghame Hussain so Shias from all over India come and do Azadari and matam.
The famous few are the Mumbaikar Shias , the Kashmiri shias , hias from Lucknow Hyderabad and Indore Bhopal, the Hyderabadi Irani hoteliers come here to feed the poor .
There is a newly opened langar house by a Shia Momin from Delhi I never met him and whatever his credentials to piety I found his Langar House to ostentatious loud colorful looking like an auditorium unfortunately Imam Hussain never had such luxury in his life.
Imam Hussain is a story of humility simplicity and human pain , these are my personal views without bias ,the gentleman all be it has done a lot and my words should not be a deterrent to his good work.
