Christianity in India dates back to Portugese and British Rule in India. The Catholic Churches and Cathedrals of that era speak of the grandeur of their lifestyles and the dedication of the missionaries. Christianity in India is as old as world Christianity. There are 25 million Christians in India which is just below 3% of the total population of the Country. Diversity of Christians is noticeable: Syrian Christians, Knanaya Christians, Goan Christians, Tamil Christians, Anglo-Indians, Naga Christians, etc are the main. They differ in language, social customs and economic prosperity. Christians play a decisive role in the fields of education, social work and even in politics.
