Despite all the ban on pillion riding, closure of mobile phone services, thanks Al-Mighty Allah that we all came back in one piece after offering Eid prayers.
There was only one policeman posted at the mosque.
I asked him where is the other 'Nafri' and the Rangers, he told me that Rangers did not came, but there is a Police Mobile Van and Sabih has gone for 'Ghast'.
These were the security arrangements the government has made after a lot of hullabaloo.
