The main function for the recitation of Holy Quran and offering of special Fateh prayers for the martyrs was held at Jama Masjid Srinagar.

Soon after Quranic recitation, a Valley wide Husn-e-Qirat Competation was organised by the Anjunam-e-Auqaf Jamia Masjid which was presided over by Mirwaiz Umar Farooq.

The first position was bagged by Qari Gazi Abu Bakar, of Darul Uloom Bilaliya,second position was bagged by Qari Talib Hussain of Darul Uloom Dawoodiya Srinagar, Third by Qari Mushtaq Ul Islam of Markaz Al Maarif Bathendi Jammu, and Fourth by Qari Ajaz Ahmad Bhat of Anwar uloom Lolab.
