9-year-old daughter of diamond merchant from Gujarat becomes monk

A 9-year-old daughter of a diamond merchant embraced monkhood in Gujarat, renouncing material comforts. Devanshi, the eldest daughter of Dhanesh and Ami Sanghvi, took 'diksha' in presence of Jain monk Acharya Vijay Kirtiyashsuri and hundreds of other people in Surat, a family associate said. A day before Devanshi took 'diksha', a religious procession was taken out with fanfare in Surat.
