Earlier in the day, Congress MLA Arif Masood had issued a mass appeal that people should protest government’s decision related to lockdown at the time of festival like Eid-ul-Azha and Raksha Bandhan. ‘People should display black flags and oppose government decision. BJP is organizing public rallies and other election related activities then why should religious activities be restricted,’ said Masood.
Such festivals boost economy and help the poor therefore government should take a decision in favour of the poor, added the Congress MLA.
