Indian Christians are eagerly looking forward to the canonisation of Mother Teresa and churches across the country would be holding special masses in her honour. As the Vatican prepares to declare Mother Teresa a saint on September 4, in the Indian city where she rose to fame, claims of medical negligence and financial mismanagement at her care homes threaten to cloud her legacy. Singing nuns and followers clutching flowers flocked to Mother Teresa's tomb in the Indian city of Kolkata to celebrate her proclamation as a saint at the Vatican. People started gathering from early morning at Mother House in Kolkata for a special mass for the "Saint of the Gutters" ahead of the ceremony due at St Peter's Basilica. / AFP PHOTO / SAJJAD HUSSAINSAJJAD HUSSAIN/AFP/Getty Images
