Baramulla, Jammu and Kashmir: Union Home Minister Amit Shah today briefly stopped his speech during a rally in Jammu and Kashmir’s Baramulla district as ‘Azaan’ or Muslim call to prayer was going on at a nearby mosque.
Five minutes into his half-an-hour-long speech at Showkat Ali stadium in the North Kashmir district, Amit Shah paused and asked those on stage “if something was going on at a mosque?”
When someone on the stage told him that ‘Azaan’ was going on, Amit Shah stopped his speech immediately, attracting a huge round of applause and chanting of slogans in his favour from the gathering.
After a brief moment, he said that the call for prayer had now stopped and asked if he could continue his speech.
