People across the country are celebrating Eid-al-Adha. Earlier today, people flocked in large numbers to the
Ajmer Sharif Dargah
to offer prayers on the occasion.
Scores of devotees thronged the historic
Jama Masjid
this morning to offer prayers and celebrate Eid al-Adha. Dressed in traditional attire, worshippers came together in a spirit of devotion, unity, and celebration, marking one of the most significant festivals in the Islamic calendar.
In Mumbai, people offered Namaz at the Jama Masjid Mahim Dargah.
People also offered Namaz in several other cities, including Sambhal, Gorakhpur, Thiruvananthapuram, and Bhopal.
Eid al-Adha, also known as the
Festival of Sacrifice
, commemorates the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim to sacrifice his son in obedience to God. The day is marked by prayers, charitable acts, and the ritual sacrifice of animals, with a message of sharing and empathy at its core.
Eid al-Adha is called Id-ul-Adha in Arabic and Bakr-Id in the Indian subcontinent, because of the
tradition
of sacrificing a goat or 'bakri'. It is a festival that is celebrated with traditional fervour and gaiety in India.

Ministers lead I-Day celebration in Hosapete, Koppal with flag hoistings and assurances of development
Karnataka Ministers on Friday led the 79th Independence Day celebrations in Vijayanagara and Koppal districts, highlighting the State government's welfare schemes and reaffirming their commitment to development in the Kalyana Karnataka region. In Hosapete, Housing Minister and Vijayanagara District In-charge Minister Zameer Ahmed Khan hoisted the national flag at the Puneeth Rajkumar District Stadium and announced that the Congress government was implementing the Vasati Bhagya housing scheme as an undeclared sixth guarantee for the poor. He said 7,900 houses in Bengaluru and 42,345 in other parts of the State will be distributed in the coming months. Criticising the previous BJP government for neglecting the housing sector, he said the Congress administration aimed to build 2.3 lakh houses by the end of 2026. He detailed the revival of the Bengaluru housing project initiated in 2016, with beneficiary contributions reduced to ₹8 lakh and the State covering additional loan interest. Mr. Khan also said that the planned distribution of 42,345 houses in Hubballi was postponed to next month, as the government's second-year Sadhana Samavesha will be held in Hosapete. The Minister hoisted the flag on a smaller pole as the city's famed high-mast, said to be the second tallest in the country, remains unrepaired since Republic Day. Several officers were felicitated, students staged cultural shows, and 12 contingents took part in a march-past. In Koppal, District In-charge Minister Shivaraj Tangadagi unfurled the tricolour at the District Stadium and said the government's guarantee schemes have improved people's economic conditions. He announced that in the current fiscal year, funds from the Kalyana Karnataka Region Development Board were being used to build new classrooms and upgrade facilities in 265 schools.

One week ultimatum: Pam Bondi orders sanctuary cities to obey immigration laws; threatens legal action
Attorney General Pam Bondi (AP images) US Attorney General Pam Bondi who is temporarily overseeing Washington DC's police at President Donald Trump 's request had announced on Thursday that the Department of Justice (DOJ) has sent letters to sanctuary jurisdictions across the country. These jurisdictions have one week to comply with federal immigration laws or face potential legal action. Bondi contrasted South Carolina's cooperation with Democratic-leaning states like New York and California. Bondi was in Greenville, South Carolina, for a panel discussion with State Attorney General Alan Wilson, members of Congress and local law enforcement officials. She had confirmed that letters had been sent to 32 mayors and several governors, warning them to follow federal policies or face DOJ action, as reported by Fox News. In a social media post on X, Bondi announced that DOJ has sent "demand letters" to sanctuary cities, counties and states as a 'key step' in eliminating sanctuary policies from California to New York." Threatening lawsuits, she said that "any sanctuary jurisdiction that continues to put illegal aliens ahead of American citizens can either come to the table or see us in court." The announcement comes amid concerns about law enforcement staffing in sanctuary cities. Following Democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani 's primary victory in New York, the New York City Police Department reportedly saw a surge in retirement filings. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Bondi had also spoken out against current Mayor Eric Adams before, criticizing the city for being a sanctuary city. She stressed the importance of strong leadership for officer safety and urged federal, state and local governments to support law enforcement. Bondi specifically mentioned a letter sent to California Governor Gavin Newsom, warning that officials obstructing federal immigration enforcement could face criminal charges. The letter stressed the importance of cooperation between federal, state and local agencies to enforce immigration law and protect national security. She also praised South Carolina as a model of cooperation among federal, state and local law enforcement. She cited recent operations, including the arrest of a Sinaloa Cartel member after a large cocaine seizure in Myrtle Beach and the largest fentanyl seizure in the state's history, which involved coordinated efforts by DEA agents, local sheriffs and state police. The seized fentanyl was estimated to have the potential to kill 36 million people and a street value of $1.7 million. Several states, including California, New York, Colorado and Illinois, have already faced lawsuits over their immigration policies. Others on the list include Delaware, Nevada, Minnesota and DC.
