New Delhi: The Maharashtra government has rescheduled the Eid-e-Milad holiday in the Mumbai district from September 16-18, following a request from the local Muslim community to avoid a clash with Anant Chaturdashi, the final day of Ganesh Chaturthi on September 17.
An official statement from the state government confirmed the change, noting that the local Muslim community had voluntarily chosen to shift their Eid-e-Milad processions to September 18 to ensure that both festivals could be celebrated without logistical issues. Ganpati Visarjan, the immersion of Ganesh idols, typically draws massive crowds across Mumbai, making it one of the city’s most significant events.
