The event witnessed participation not only from local residents but also from people visiting from surrounding areas who came to receive the meal. Sunnath Jamath has been organizing this free ghee rice distribution for the past ten years, with this being the 11th consecutive year of the charitable initiative.

Miladi Nabi is celebrated as one of the major festivals among Muslims. On this day, food, clothing, and financial assistance are distributed to the underprivileged across various locations. Such charitable activities are undertaken as a way to follow the teachings and noble qualities of the Prophet.
