After 3 decades, authorities allow 8th Muharram procession through traditional routes

After over three decades, authorities allowed the 8th Muharram procession to pass through its traditional route on Thursday.

The administration has granted two-hour permission to the procession. It is to be carried out between 6 am to 8 am. Notably, the procession is being carried out on the traditional route of Shaheed Gunj to Dalgate, a route which was thrown out of bounds for the processions in the backdrop of the law and order situation since 1989.

The administration put all security arrangements in place to prevent any law and order situation during processions.
