Mysuru: A father and son who were following Islam returned to the Hindu fold today at the Arya Samaj in the presence of Sri Ram Sene Chief Pramod Muthalik and members of various other Hindu organisations. The two who returned to Hindu fold by converting from Islam to Hinduism are G. Seshadri who was earlier called Syed Abbas and his son Harshit Arya who was earlier called Syed Atiq. The vedic rituals according to the Arya Samaj rites were performed by chief priest H.V. Naveen Arya.
Seshadri and Harshit were welcomed back to the Hindu fold when the Yagnopavita (sacred thread) ceremony was performed as both of them had the thread across the chest and they did the Sandyavandane.
