KANPUR: As the month of Ramazan draws closer towards the completion, the youngsters are focussing their minds on the collection of traditional "Eidi" from the elders. As many as 25 days of the month have been passed, only a few days are remaining. That's why the children are aiming at the gift.
However, they are well aware of the fact that the Eid prayers will not be held at the mosques. But they have not forgotten about Eidi, the monetary gain on the day of the Eid-ul-Fitr, the annual festival of the Muslims.
Not one boy but all the boys are thinking in the same direction. What they are intensely thinking of increase in the collection of Eidi.
One 14-year-old boy tried to enquire of his relative as to how much amount would he pay as Eidi to him. Quick came the reply from the relative that he had never paid you Eidi, so why should he think of giving you on this Eid. Applying his mind the boy further said, you have now moved to the same building where I lived. The relative answered why should he mar his old record? At last, the boy accepted that he had never given us Eidi.
The matter ended at the topics related to the festival.
