PMA Salam, Kerala general secretary of IUML, said Fridays are an important day for the Muslims who gather in mosques for prayer.
The IUML, on Sunday, 17 March, said it will move the poll panel seeking to change the polling dates in Kerala and Tamil Nadu as they fall on Fridays. The polling in Tamil Nadu is on 19 April, while it is on 26 April in Kerala. Both are Fridays. The IUML said the announced dates will be inconvenient to the faithful.
