Srinagar, Mar 07: The deputy Commissioner Srinagar on Tuesday evening said no order has been issued for disallowing Shab-e-Barat Prayers at Jamia Masjid.
DC Srinagar, Ajaz Asad told news agency Kashmir Dot Com that “I don’t have issued any order on authorities to disallow Shab-e-Baraat prayers at Jama Masjid here.”
Earlier, Anjuman Auqaf Jama Masjid informed that “concerned police and administration officials came to Jamia Masjid Nowhatta and locked the gates of the Masjid at 5.30 pm informing the Anjuman , that as per the orders of DC Srinagar no Shab-e-Barat prayers will be allowed to take place at Jama Masjid tonight . Anjuman strongly protests the highhandedness of the authorities and calls it blatant interference and violation of our religious rights.”
Meanwhile, Mehbooba Mufti in a tweet said “Locking up Jama Masjid on the auspicious occasion of Shab e Barat is a brazen violation of fundamental rights & religious freedom guaranteed by the Indian Constitution. May Allah Ta’aala give us strength to get through these tough times.” (KDC)
