MUMBAI, INDIA: Indian Parsi girls cover their heads with scarves before attending prayers at a fire temple on the occasion of Navroze - Parsi New Year in Mumbai, 20 August 2005. Parsis, followers of Zoroastrianism, a small religious community which exists mostly in Mumbai, were exiled from Iran in the 7th century AD because of religious persecution by the Muslims. The Indian followers of Zoroastrianism are called Parsis because the religion arrived in India from Persia. The Parsis believe in the existence of one invisible God and constitute less then 0.02% of India's billion plus population. AFP PHOTO/Indranil MUKHERJE.
