Eid prayers denied at Srinagar's Jama Masjid for 8th year in row
Eid prayers were denied at Srinagar's historic Eidgah and Jama Masjid for the eighth year. Mirwaiz Umar Farooq was placed under house arrest. Muslims in Kashmir faced barricades and restrictions on Eid. This action is seen as an assault on religious identity and fundamental rights. An entire generation is being deprived of traditions and memories associated with these religious sites.
