The Janata Dal (Secular) supremo, who arrived in the city in the morning, visited Shri Durga Parameshwari temple in Kateel and paid obeisance to the deity.

He was welcomed priests Anantha Asranna, Venkatramana Asranna, Harinarayanadas Asranna and others.

Later he also paid a visit to Ullal and offered special prayers at Hazrat Sayyid Shareeful Madani Darga.

Ullal Juma Masjid and Sayyid Madani Darga committee president Abdul Rasheed Haji among others welcomed the former PM.

Interestingly, industrialist B M Farooq, who had contested recent Rajya Sabha polls through JD(S), accompanied Mr Gowda to both the holy places.

It's worth mentioning here that Mr Gowda had promised a prominent post in the party after the Rajya Sabha poll debacle.

He knows that there is no difference between Durga & Darga. Worshiping the dead is shirk (Major sin) which Allah will not forgive. It is just a Money making center & mafia center

Mangaluru, Jul 31: Muslims across coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada today observed Eid al Adha following the safety guidelines issued by the government amidst covid-19 pandemic. 

While coastal Karnataka is celebrating the festival of sacrifice today, it will be observed in other parts of Karnataka and country tomorrow. 

Congregational Eid prayers were held in many mosques while ensuring physical distancing norms. Only 50 devotees were allowed in mosques. Children below 10 years of age and elders above 60 years of age weren’t allowed. 

Eidgahs in the region wore a deserted look as the government has temporarily prohibited prayers in the open grounds. The Eidgah at Lighthouse Hill in Mangaluru, which usually witnessed huge crowd during Eid celebrations, was also closed this time. 

As expected, the celebration this time was a low key thanks to the restrictions placed in tune with the threat of coronavirus infection.

Prayers were held in Kudroli’s Nadupalli and Bundar’s Zeenat Bakhsh Central mosque. All those who entered mosque were wearing masks. 

In Udupi city, Eid prayers were held at Jamia Masjid and other mosques with limited number of devotees. In Bhatkal took some of the mosques hosted Eid prayers with all precautionary measures.
