The EU diplomats said, the communal violence in Orissa's Kandhamal, which claimed 38 lives including Christian Dalits' and Hindu tribals, had its impact on the people of Europe. Visiting diplomats from nine European Union countries said in Bhubaneswar last evening that people in their countries wanted to know about the ground situation at Kandhamal. The EU diplomats also informed the media persons that they are anxious to know about the condition of the violence-affected people 25 months after the riot in Kandhamal. Since the EU decided to fund some development activities in Orissa, they wanted to assess the ground situation, especially whether communal harmony prevailed now. The visiting delegation said it discussed with<br/><br/>journalists different issues relating to riot in Kandhamal. The delegation met church leaders including Archbishop of Cuttack-Bhubaneswar dioces Rapheal Cheenath.<br/>
