Srinagar, Sep 5 :
Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Friday criticized the administration for what he termed a deliberate and inconsiderate move to not shift the holiday on Eid Milad despite the clear provision in the official calendar.
In a post on X, Omar Abdullah, as per news agency Kashmir News Corner — KNC, wrote, “The calendar printed by the Government press is very clear — ‘Subject to the appearance of the moon’. It means that the holiday is subject to change depending upon the moon being sighted.”
“The deliberate decision by the unelected government to not shift the holiday is inconsiderate & designed to hurt the sentiments of the people,” it reads.
Hashtags #EidMiladUnNabi and #eidmiladunnabi2025 accompanied his post, underlining his strong objection to the administration’s handling of the matter. (KNC)
