GREETINGS IN INDIA The way of greeting “ Khuda hafis” is more Urdu and is

commonly used by Muslims in India. “ Jay Sreekrishna” is

a typical Gujarathi greeting, where sreekrishna is a Hindu

God. There could be regional and cultural variations in

the way of greeting, but I repeat , “ Namasthae “ is always

safe. Reply to Namasthae is also Namsthae. You canprefix “Namsthae” with the person’s name, if you wish.
