Ganga Jamuni tehzeeb showcased during yatra

Lucknow: Keeping with the Ganga Jamuni tehzeeb of the city, several Muslims contributed to the yatra. Some had put stalls in the old city to welcome the yatra with water and cold drinks, others had closed their shops for a while to provide a way to the devotees. Umar Bhai ‘Roti wale’ (55) who had put a stall near Akbari Gate said that it is the brotherhood and love which I have been seeing since my childhood that guides me every year. He also arranges a floral shower at the stall.
Mohammad Zahid (55), shut his shop for a while so that the yatra could progress with ease. “Every year, I welcome the yatra and if required help pulling the chariot,” he said.
