Under the aegis of Indian Journalist Association, journalists organized a collective Roza Iftar at the National Administrative Office at Ghazi Roza. To promote Ganga Jamuni Tehzeeb, journalists from print, electronic, web media participated and gave the message of love and laid the dastarkhan of love on Roza Iftar.

Welcoming all the journalists, National President of Indian Journalist Association Jr. Seraj Ahmad Quraishi said that in Islam, fasting is not just about staying hungry and thirsty, but it is a spiritual and moral practice. Its main objective is to develop the feeling of self-restraint, patience, and devotion to God. Roza is not only a means of purity of the body but also of purification of the soul.

Senior Journalist Sushil Kumar said that during the month of Ramzan, Muslims stay away from food, water and bad habits from sunrise to sunset. This is a test of self-control, through which a person learns to control his desires.

The journalists present unanimously said that through such Roza Iftar programs, the animosity spreading in the society can be ended. Such programs maintain mutual brotherhood and love.
