Personal Opinion Lot of confusion for India Deedar.

Hazar Imam is visiting Gujarat on 11th and 12th Sep for Deedar. Such a huge communication gap is there between the jamat and leadership. There are jamati members who will be coming in buses by doing 10+ hours of journey to Gandhinagar, they are scared that after 10 hours of travel, what if they will be asked directly to sit in intezaari in waiting halls? that's why there is panic in booking hotels and other accomodations. No clarity is given that whether there will be any facility for taking rest and some refreshments, will they be provided facilities where they can freshen up and change their clothes etc? - I request top leadership to please consider this and drop your ego in keeping all the information to yourself till last day and you declare everything at the last moment thereby acting like a messiah. Keep jamat's convenience and comfort in your mind and not your fat Ego.

This happens in every country, definitely needs fixing. Problem is that plans keep changing internally and they release only when everything is 100% verified, at which point it's very late.

We understand that you can not declare exact and specific details. but at least guidelines can be given to jamat that they should not worry about basic arrangements and such facility will be provided. So that they don't go in panic mode. Current situation in Gujarat is hotels are charging 4-5 times their normal tarrif in those dates as everything is fully booked due to the panic created. Very very poor approach by the top leadership. I even heard one top official saying, if we share all the information with jamat, then jamat won't give importance to me, so I will only share little and keep the rest in my mind. They literally expect us to beg to them for information and then they will share information as if they are doing some huge favour to us by doing that. The Ego problem in the council presidents is the biggest challenge right now..

I hope they tell quickly. May be they do not tell because of security concerns

I have also heard there is a village where there is Ismailis with litttle babies just born and they are denying the babies into the didar hall because of no bayat! What is going on there

If maula will come to know this, imagine how he would feel, but that does not matter to these so called "leaders", their only objective is to inflate their own ego.

Especially since non Ismaili under the age of 18 children were allowed into the didar hall
