The governor of Southern India's Karnataka state -- where most of the recent atrocities on Christians have been committed -- has paid tribute to the Christian contribution to national life, according to the Ecumenical News International website.
"we are privileged to have so many Christian institutions to bring dignity of life and knowledge to the poor," said Hansray Bhardwai in a July 8, 2010 address at the concluding celebration of the centenary of the United Theological College in Bangalore -- Karnataka's state capital.
He also noted that Christians run nearly 20 percent of the educational, primary healthcare, and social welfare centers in India.
