COVID-19 changed Eid celebration: Health Minister Harsh Vardhan

Recalling previous Eid celebrations, the minister shared a video on his Twitter handle and wrote: "I have a deep association with Eid. On this day, wishing friends a happy Eid by hugging them is every year's ritual, but the rule has changed this time due to Covid-19. Let us take a pledge to strengthen mutual brotherhood and harmony on this occasion."
