In past,
prostitutes and their children were buried without observing religious rituals.
Hindus were buried and Muslims were burnt. Or else they were made float in the
river. But at present, separate graveyard has been built and Janaja prayer is
held for the departed soul. Hindus are burnt following rituals. Most of the
CSWs practice rituals. They say prayer, keep fast and read the Holy Quran. They
regularly go to the mosque and temple. The hujur or caregivers encourage them
to observe rituals. They seek help from the almighty while they are in danger.
