Srinagar: The Urs of Dastgeer Sahib  (RA) was celebrated on Friday with religious fervour across the valley while the main functions were held at Khanyar and Saraibala shrines in Srinagar. The Urs is being celebrated on 11th day of Rabi-Ul-Sani every year according to the Hijri calendar.
Thousands of devotees thronged the shrine of Sufi saint Sheikh Syed Abdul Qadir Jeelani (RA) at Khanyar Srinagar to have the glimpse of a relic of the saint.
