Aizawl, INDIA: (FILES) In this picture taken 22 January 2004, Indian Jews place their hands to their faces as they take part in prayers at a synagogue in Aizawl. Over two hundred Indians recognised as Jews by rabbinical authorities have migrated from India's northeastern Mizoram state to Israel after an invitation from Jerusalem, religious leaders said 16 November 2006. Rabbinical leaders announced last March that some 6,000 members of the Bnei Menashe tribe in India?s northeast were descendants of ancient Israelites or one of the Biblical 10 lost tribes. The recognition from Israel came after tribe members sent scores of applications seeking to migrate to Israel, or the "Promised Land", saying it was their right to do so. According to Israeli law, every Jew enjoys the "right of return" - or the right of abode in the country. AFP PHOTO/STR/FILES (Photo credit should read STR/AFP via Getty Images)
