With this, the followers of Islam joined the celebrations of the festival. Believers celebrate the festival with the strength of self-purification achieved during Ramadan. The families gather together and share love on this occasion.

The Governor and the Chief Minister wished the believers through their social media accounts. The chief minister wished that the celebrations would reflect high brotherhood.
