Mumbai, March 31 -- Muslims in Mumbai and in other parts of Maharashtra on Monday celebrated Eid-ul-Fitr with joy and offered the traditional 'Salat-al-Eid namaz' (prayers) peacefully in mosques here on Monday.
In Mumbai, Eid prayers were conducted at various mosques in city, and to accommodate the huge rush, many mosques had arranged two-three congregations and prevented the crowd from spilling onto the roads or public spaces that could cause inconvenience to others.
