Praying in Jama Masjid and feasting on mutton - it's Eid!
The area around Jama Masjid in Delhi's old quarter was a sight to behold Wednesday as men of all ages, dressed in crisp white pathani suits and matching skull caps, visited the 17th century mosque to offer prayers on Eid-ul-Azha and hugged each other, saying "Eid Mubarak"! Muslims around the capital celebrated the festival by first offering prayers, distributing food among the needy and then feasting on mutton delicacies.
