After the Noida police earlier this month declared a park in the city out-of-bounds for Muslim workers offering namaz, private companies have started to offer space to their employees for the prayers.

In Sector 58, three firms opened their roof area for Muslim workers to pray. Reportedly, as many as 80 people offered namaz at a company’s terrace.

“I have been coming to the company every Friday for the past 12 years. It started when the owner was looking for an Imam for his Muslim employees. The owner has also arranged for a priest for the Hindu employees of the company. It’s incredible how the environment of mutual respect has been carried for more than a decade,”, said Abbas, as quoted by HindustanTimes.

On Friday majority of the workers decided to offer namaz in a Sector 54 park. While, the Sector 58 park so a turn out of just over a dozen as people found the ground water-logged, with police keeping their vigil. The park in the past years has seen a turn out of more than hundred for the Friday namaz.

On Monday, police had issued a notice asking all companies to inform their employees not to offer namaz in the Sector 58 park.
