Mangaluru : Muslims across Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts not celebrated Eid at mosques in the wake of the Covid lockdown and guidelines enforced by the government.

All members of the community are celebrating the festival in their respective homes on Thursday May 13.

As Eid Namaz in mosques have not been permitted in the wake of rising Covid cases, the gates of all the mosques have been kept closed with some mosques even pasting notices mentioning about the Covid restrictions.

It may be recalled here that the Khazis of the two districts had earlier requested the Muslims to celebrate the festival in a simple way.
