Early this morning, Muslims took bath and gathered at Nepali Jame Masjid, Kashmiri Masjid on Darbarmarg in Kathmandu and offered mass prayers. After the prayer, they hug each other and exchange greetings. It is a religious tradition that this festival will be celebrated for three days starting from today till next Saturday.
