"There was a period... when the tradition of holding such events (Eid Milan) was done away with. I am happy this tradition is being revived," he said.

"The word secular has become abuse in the city where Maulana Azad gave a speech from Jama Masjid calling on people to stay back at the time of partition. Now people are identified by their clothes," the JD(U) leader said.

The NCP's Minority Cell chief Siraj Mehdi said the event was being organised to counter growing hatred with love and brotherhood. NCP leaders Prafful Patel, and Fauzia Khan were also present at the event.
