The following article is extracted from an upcoming book written by John Prabhudoss, titled The Upper West House.
Christianity practiced in erstwhile kingdoms of the Indian sub-continent is as old as the Faith itself.
Thomas initially visited Northwestern parts of the sub-continent in the years between 46 AD and 49 AD.
Besides Thomas, another Apostle of Christ, Bartholomew also visited Northwestern kingdoms of the sub-continent establishing churches as far down South as the Port city of present-day Mumbai.
