Bengaluru, April 15 : The month-long Ramazan fasting began across Karnataka on a solemn note in compliance with the Covid norms amid the second wave of the pandemic, an official said on Wednesday. The first day of Ramzan fasting began in the wee hours (04:55am) of the day with Sehri namaz and concluded with Iftar prayers in the evening (6:37 pm), Markazi Ruyath-e-Hilal convenor Mohammad Sageer Ahmed Rashadi told IANS here.
Though mosques in containment zones remained shut as per the guidelines, hundreds of the devout were allowed to offer prayers (namaz) in other mosques in a limited number to maintain social distancing and avoid crowding the place of worship.
