By: Nizam Hussain
HELD SRINAGAR, Held Kashmir: Hundreds of Shia Muslims in the
Indian-Held Kashmir staged a protest against the years-long ban on
Muharram procession here on Monday Dec 21 under the banner of
Anjuman- Sharai Shian.
The protest rally passed through Lal Chowk and converged at Pratap
Park as the protestors carried placards reading ' We want religious
freedom.'
Murtuza Hussian Abbasi, leader of Anjuman- Sharai- Shian said that
they were asking for their religious freedom.
"We are protesting against the ban imposed by the government for the
last 20 years on 8th and 10th day of Muharram (the first month of
the Islamic calendar). We demand that the government removes the
unjustified restrictions and give us a sense of religious freedom,"
said Abbasi.

"Knowledge is
better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the
more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you
get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
