The mosque authorities at various places ensured checking body temperature of the devotees and provided them with hand sanitiser.

Muslim devotees were unable to pray in mosques on Eid-ul-Fitr.

The Covid-19 lockdown had led to the closure of religious places, including mosques, due to which Muslim devotees were unable to pray in mosques on Eid-ul-Fitr in May. The Centre had allowed religious places to reopen from June 8 under Unlock 1.

Under Unlock 3 guidelines, religious functions and other large congregations continue to be prohibited.
