Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, July 29 -- Mosque committees across Aurangabad have unanimously decided to suspend the use of loudspeakers for the pre-dawn Fajr Azan at nearly all city mosques.
ThE action implements the Supreme Court's directive prohibiting widespread religious calls using loudspeakers between 10 pm and 6 am.
The landmark decision follows intensive consultations between Police Commissioner Praveen Pawar and religious leaders, forging an amicable solution to a potentially contentious issue. It comes in response to the Supreme Court's May 13 verdict, which imposed time restrictions on loudspeaker use for religious purposes to balance fundamental religious rights with citizens' right to undisturbed rest during night hours.
