Holy Roller

An Indian holy man, popularly known as Ludkan Baba or the "rolling seer," has reached New Delhi on his rolling peace mission to neighboring Pakistan.

Baba is planning to roll all the way to Lahore, nearly 1,500 miles from his hometown of Ratlam in the central Madhya Pradesh state.

He said his mission was to prevent the death of innocent people in the disputed Kashmir region. Once in Lahore, Baba plans to meet Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf to congratulate him on the ongoing peace process between India and Pakistan.

Ludkan Baba holds a world record for rolling the longest distance: in 1994 he rolled from Ratlam to the shrine of Vaishno Devi, a distance of 2,485 miles.
