India has a very different feel when it comes to religion. I don't just mean that there are Hindus here--that's obvious. It's more that you see all the major religions represented all over the place. Autorickshaws may have a Ganesha on the dashboard or a Jesus Rocks sticker on the windshield. Women dressed nearly in a burhka will be riding on the back of a two wheeler. There is religious tension in India but it's still very different than in the US, where you really don't see a Mosque often.
This is a small park dedicated to the Christian minister portrayed in the statue with the temple just across the street (there are little temples like this all over).
Not sure how Siemens figures with the Bible Society or Bible World, but they are all in this building I guess.
This is one of the Mosques I have past--it's right on the edge of one of the shopping districts I like to go to.
