Four months after 23-year-old Ankit Saxena was stabbed to death by the family of his Muslim girlfriend in west Delhi's Raghubir Nagar, his father Yashpal Saxena organised an iftaar gathering for 200 people to send out a message of love and peace. Back then, when attempts were made to communalise the young man's death, Mr Saxena's appeal to all was not to make any "inflammatory statements".
