At the Integrated Command Control centre at Banjarahills, a group of central Milad organisers and two AIMIM MPs met with Commissioner of police C v Anand on Saturday. They presented him with a representation outlining their desire to observe Milad on october 1. "We have asked the city police commissioner for permission to hold the intended Milad celebrations after immersion. The necessary authorities would be informed of the date in a day or two, according to Syed Khader Mohiuddin Junaid Pasha, general secretary of the Milad Juloos committee. In response to the plea, DCP South Zone P Sai chaitanya stated that the procession's licence would be granted in accordance with the law.
Milad-un-Nabi, which commemorates the anniversary of the Prophet Muhammad's birth, was observed nationwide on october 9 and went off without incident, with the exception of a few states where young Muslims are accused of upsetting the general populace by chanting incendiary slogans and playing loud dj music.
