Muslim craftsmen were making temple bells at a foundry in Gujarat in western India. They melt brass over burning coal and pour it into sand molds to harden. This traditional method of production has been handed down for centuries in this city. The bells made by these Muslim craftsmen are rung at Hindu temples. The different religions coexist in peace.
