The celebrations on Milad-un-Nabi, the birth anniversary of Prophet Muhammed, in Tirupati stood as a symbol of communal harmony.
After elaborate prayers at the Pedda Masjid or ‘Pedda Peerla Chavadi’, the event was marked by distribution of food to the public, which happened close to Panchamukha Anjaneya Swamy temple. The temple and the mosque are located a few feet apart and the ‘Langar’ (distribution of anna prasadam) programme by the mosque is always held near the temple’s compound wall.
