The Shia Muslim mourners on Monday took out a Muharram procession to mark the eighth day of mourning on the traditional Guru Bazar-Dalgate route, officials said.
The procession passed off peacefully as authorities had made adequate security arrangements.
The procession began from Guru Bazar locality in the city early Monday and passed through the designated route via Jehangir Chowk and Maulana Azad Road before culminating at Dalgate.
Thousands of mourners assembled at Guru Bazar at 5.30 am as the authorities had granted a limited time window for the procession so that normal life does not get affected.
The procession was carried out to commemorate the martyrdom of the Prophet’s grandson, Imam Hussain (AS), his family and supporters at the hands of Yazid’s army in the desert of Karbala in Iraq.
