The representatives of traders associations of their respective union councils, tehsil councils are fully active to decorate streets with colourful buntings besides illuminating their shops, offices and buildings. The religious persons belonging to different groups have displayed banners on all streets, bazaars and markets to express their love with Holy Prophet Hazrat Mohammad (peace be upon him).
On the directions of the city district government, the buildings of government offices have been beautifully decorated with colourful lights. At night the city and cantonment areas give a festive look.
Apart from arrangements to celebrate the day, the traders and shopkeepers are playing naats in their shops exhibiting their affection with Holy Prophet Hazrat Mohammad (peace be upon him).
Imams at mosques in their daily sermons after ‘Fajr’ and ‘Isha’ prayers highlight the teachings and principles of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
