Islamic Ministry to form Eid celebration plan

The Islamic Ministry has begun drafting a plan, with a special committee, for celebrating Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha across Male' and the atolls starting from next year, in consultation with local councils and Islamic NGOs. Minister Mohamed Shaheem said the framework is not restrictive and that the ministry will work with the Ministry of Dhivehi Language, Culture and Heritage on events in cities; the move follows criticism of a parade in Kulhudhuffushi City during recent Eid al-Adha celebrations.
