Several Hindus, including members of the Belagavi City Central Ganesh Mahamandal joined the Id-e-Milad-un-Nabi procession in Belagavi on Sunday.
Mahamandal spokesperson Vikas Kalaghatagi told reporters that this gesture was to express solidarity with Muslims who had voluntarily postponed the procession by a week to allow a hassle-free Ganesh idol immersion procession last week and reduce the burden on the police.
Other Mahamandal leaders Babulal Rajpurohit and Sanjay Bhandari participated in the procession.
The former MLA Firose Sait said that joint celebrations were nothing new in the city.
“We have been celebrating all festivals in Belagavi forever. Let us continue this legacy. Our brothers have joined us today. Let us share sweets with them on Deepavali,” he said.
They were joined by MLA Asif (Raju) Sait and Police Commissioner Iada Martin Marbaniang, Deputy Commissioner Mohmmad Roshan and others.
