Udalguri: Eid-ul-Fitr was a joyous occasion in Tangla and surrounding areas of Udalguri district on Thursday. Muslims from Panery, Dimakuchi, Garuajhar, Ghagra, and Kalaigaon came together to celebrate the end of Ramadan.
Dressed in their finest ethnic wear, men and children thronged Eidgahs for special prayers. Hundreds gathered at the Bara Masjid Idgah Maidan and Banseria Eidgah Maidan in Tangla. Special sermons reflected on the significance of Ramadan fasting and emphasized the importance of communal harmony.
Children, especially, added to the festive spirit with their colorful outfits and excitement.
