The Urs of Data Ganj Bakhsh (Snaps Part-1)
The Urs of Data Ganj Bakhsh Annually, thousands of Muslim devotees from across the country attend the 'Urs' of Saint Syed Ali bin Osman Al-Hajvery, popularly known as Data Ganj Bakhsh. The three day festival is celebrated in Lahore. Worshippers light candles, incense and pay homage to one of the great sufi scholars of South Asia.
