The program was organized on Sunday where more than 1200 persons including women and children were served iftaar and dinner, most of whom were labourers, needy and daily wagers.

In Kashmiri tradition, a gathering of four people eat together in one big plate called “trami”, sitting on the ground over a dining spread (dastarkhan). The same tradition was followed and 300 ‘tramis’ were arranged for serving the meals for this grand Iftaar.
