Dear Mr. Naresh & Mr. Yogesh, well said. Islam never promotes worshipping the creation, but the creator. They don't even know the "Baalapaata" of Islam. May Allah (SWT) guide them to the right path. I feel pity for them. I think Govt. should take the necessary step to curb such non-sense celebrations. Mere wastage of money. It could be used in the development of the city instead.
