Annual Urs of Hazrat Bibi Pak Daman has been started in Lahore on Monday, 24News HD TV Channel reported.

According to the channel report, the shrine was covered with a chador after giving it a bath with rose water.

Due to continuing a construction work of extension of the shrine, the administration halted the entry of pilgrims and devotees in the court.

Shrine Manager Gohar Mustafa has said the pilgrims have access to the entrance from where they could pay for their rituals including the lighting of lamps.

On the first day of the Urs celebrations, a Naat ceremony was held outside the court. The police have made strict security arrangements around the shrine.
