Amid tight security, the main procession to mourn the martyrdom of Hazrat Ali (RA) culminated at Hussainian Iranian Imambargah in Kharadar after passing through its traditional route on Monday.
The police and Rangers had made extraordinary security arrangements for the city’s main procession, which started from Nishtar Park after a Majlis-e-Aza addressed by Allama Agha Ali Murtaza Zaidi.
The Youm-e-Ali procession passed through its traditional route i.e. Nishter Park, Sir Shah Nawaz Bhutto Road, Father Jaminis Road, MA Jinnah Road, Mainsfield Street, then again MA Jinnah Road, Boulton Market, Rampart Row Road, Nawab Mahabat Khanjee Road and finally the Hussainian Iranian Imambargah.
Dozens of medical camps and bookstalls were set up along the procession route, which was blocked by containers in order to avoid any untoward incident.
The mourners offered Zuhr prayers near Imambargah Ali Raza at MA Jinnah Road arranged by the Imamia Students Organisation while the participants of the procession broke fast at the Hussainian Iranian after the procession came to an end.
