Anjuman Auqaf Jama Masjid Srinagar Thursday announced that due to inclement weather and water logging at historic Eidgah Srinagar, Eid-ul-Fitr prayer will be held at 9:00 at Jama Masjid Srinagar.

The Eid prayers will be held at Jamia Masjid after the gap of three years. In a statement, Anjuman urged Muslims to pay Sadaqah Fitr, which is fixed at Rs 65 per person, before Eid prayer so that deserving people also join Eid festivities.

Anjuman strongly demanded unconditional release of its detained head Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir Dr Moulvi Muhammad Umar Farooq before Eid.
