Shadipur-Khampur-Ranjit Nagar is a diverse neighbourhood, populated by Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs and Christians. Within each of these, also, there are people from different socio-economic and caste backgrounds, as well as from different parts of the country. In a word, Shadipur is a little bit of a mini-India, the statement said.
