A Parsi family of Karachi in 1925. Parsi are the followers of Zoroastrian religion who had migrated from Iran and settled in India a long time ago.

Karachi and Mumbai are their main centers. Fire is considered sacred in their religion. They are very wealthy people and most of them are traders.

Their population has decreased significantly due to less number of marriages. Paris’s don’t cremate or bury corpses but leave them for vultures to feed on at a place called Tower of silence.

What a difference, now it's over crowded and dirty.

Yes much thanks to overpopulation. Which in turn is thanks to our stupid government policies of fertlizing our lands beyond their natural capicity. More food followed by more people followed by more people and so on and so fourth.
