Annual Eid celebrations

Clearly, the main activity of the annual Eid celebration remains attending a relative's residence. On this particular occasion, relatives make sure to see each other at home.  They are amused by a wide variety of dishes. The sweet flavour of the most significant meal, sewai , seems to be blending with joy and celebration. Even so, traditional recipes are significantly altered for the celebration.  During a visit to a relative's home, it became more apparent that not only did the dishes on the table resemble those of a five-star hotel, but also...  The golden-coloured cutlery placed on the table created the illusion of an upscale hotel. Each item placed on the table served as a reminder of the refined and opulent way of life.

Is handshake a political custom?


These turbulent days, what is even more openly discussed or talked about, whether in the political arena or on the openly vast playground, is the complete refusal of male and female cricket players to shake hands, for reasons that are strictly known by the different cricket boards of both the nations in a strict sense. It was rather an unusual norm on the cricket ground, some find. It is notoriously difficult. 

Whatever it might be, we normally shake hands at our sudden or planned meeting. However, it is sometimes also becoming optional to avoid such a good habit. It may cause problems with our good health, as was seen during the  dangerous Covid days. Therefore,  if a stop continues on this genial tradition, it must not be badly criticised just to laugh at its avoidance significantly. 

Some people prefer not to shake hands for various reasons. Touching someone is a kind of overcoming a personal barrier, so it should not be a huge concern. Though there are ways to shake hands correctly so that the other person does not feel worse. The person shaking hands should attempt to undertake it properly in every possible way. 

After the Covid days, the male and female cricketers of India and Pakistan have now been strictly avoiding handshakes; it now looks not wholly like a similar situation, comparatively. Players are clearly viewed as returning without following this traditional gesture or practice. 

Although it is also said that shaking hands was an unusual way to show that one was unarmed, that is no longer a practical way either. It might be a dying custom!

We have discovered that burying intensely a handshake with our intensive ego filings deep on the dry ground for the time being is what taking place when a social norm is allowed to rot all around the cricket ground. Handshake is taken up  more as a manner showing that observance of good manners can be just as lauding. It is  supposed to be chosen, exchanged, and glittering with a bit more of oxidised sporting patterns.
