The mourning procession would be taken out from Markazi Masjid Asna-Ashri Sector G-6/2 and after marching on its traditional routes, it will culminate on the same places.

Majlis-e-Aza would be held at the same place where religious scholars (Zakireen and Ulema) will highlight the great sacrifices of Hazrat Imam Hussain (AS) and his 72 companions. On the day the mourners will bring out “Tazia”, “Zuljinnah” and “Taboot” processions to mark the supreme sacrifices of the martyrs of Karbala.

Like the past, the residents of the area would set up stalls of tea, milk and niaz (sweet, rice) for the mourners and participants of the procession. The local administration has also made arrangements of medical treatment for mourners.

According to police officials, over 1200 cops, eight special QRF teams of Rangers, CID and special branch of police will be on duty to ensure proper security at the chehlum processions.

Strict security plans have been chalked out. Police, special QRF teams of Rangers, CID and Special Branch police will ensure smooth performance of their duties.
