Call for Rescheduling Eid-e-Milad Holiday

Maharashtra Congress leader Naseem Khan has requested Chief Minister Eknath Shinde to shift the holiday for Eid-e-Milad from September 16 to September 18, citing the overlap with Anant Chaturdashi on September 17. This change would allow the Muslim community to celebrate Eid-e-Milad processions on September 18.

Maharashtra Congress leader Naseem Khan has appealed to Chief Minister Eknath Shinde to reschedule the holiday for Eid-e-Milad from September 16 to September 18.

The appeal highlights that Anant Chaturdashi falls on September 17, coinciding closely with Eid-e-Milad preparations.

Khan emphasized that moving the holiday would enable the Muslim community to conduct processions on September 18, ensuring both festivals are celebrated fully.
