LG Manoj Sinha Joins Thousands in Srinagar Ashura Zuljanah Procession

News summary

Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha joined thousands of Shia mourners in Srinagar for the traditional Zuljanah procession on Youm-e-Ashura, commemorating the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (AS) and his companions. The procession began from Botakadal’s Ali Pora area and proceeded to Zadibal amid tight security and extensive arrangements, including traffic diversions and deployment of security personnel. Upon arrival, LG Sinha ceremoniously draped the Zuljanah with a sacred chaddar and distributed water and refreshments to the mourners, emphasizing the message of peace, love, and compassion taught by Imam Hussain. The event saw participation from men, women, and children, with recitations of nohas and chest-beating to honor the sacrifice made at Karbala. Multiple stalls from volunteers, civil society groups, and government departments provided refreshments to participants. This year’s procession continued the tradition after the administration's efforts to permit such observances, including the lifting of a 34-year ban on the 8th Muharram procession in Srinagar.
