Srinagar: J&K cabinet minister and senior political leader of National Conference Sakina Itoo has strongly criticized the Jammu and Kashmir administration for not declaring a holiday on the correct date of Eid-e-Milad, describing the move as “totally unjust” and insensitive to the sentiments of the Muslim community.
In a post on X, Itoo said the administration’s inaction had caused deep disappointment among the people. “What does ‘subject to appearance of the moon’ mean if it is not followed? Despite repeated requests from the elected Govt to shift the holiday, no action has been taken,” she wrote.
Calling it an emotional issue, Itoo accused the authorities of “playing with the emotions of the people.” She emphasized that decisions of such religious and cultural significance should rest with an elected government rather than the bureaucracy.
The controversy stems from the observance of Eid-e-Milad, which is celebrated on the 12th of Rabi-ul-Awwal, marking the birth anniversary of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). While the date of observance is traditionally dependent on the sighting of the moon, Itoo argued that the UT administration had failed to respect this principle.
