Ramadan 2026 Begins In India After Moon Sighting In Delhi, Lucknow, Patna; First Fast From Tomorrow

Ramadan 2026 Moon Sighting India: Ramadan 2026 commenced in India on Wednesday, following the sighting of the crescent moon in several cities. Muslims across the country will observe their first fast on Thursday, February 19, marking the beginning of the holy month. Shabaan Bukhari of Jama Masjid, Delhi made the announcement after which Muslims in Delhi-NCR will keep their first fast from Thursday.  Qazi Rizwan Nadawi of Imarat-e-Sharia Phulwari Sharif, Patna confirmed the development to ABP News. The moon was also sighted in Jaipur and Lucknow.  Maulana Khalid Rashid Firangi Mahli in Lucknow confirmed the moon sighting. Religious committees and local moon sightings in other parts of the country are also expected to confirm the develepment, hampered by clouds.   Also known as Ramzan, Ramzaan or Ramazan, Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar, or Hijri calendar. Its arrival is determined by the sighting of the new crescent moon, signalling a sacred period devoted to fasting, prayer, charity and spiritual reflection for Muslims worldwide.

Once the moon is sighted, communities prepare for a month-long observance that reshapes daily routines, from pre-dawn meals to evening prayers. During this period, Muslims fast from dawn to sunset, refraining from food and drink as an act of devotion and self-discipline. Why Dates Differ Across Countries Typically, the crescent moon is first sighted in Gulf nations such as the UAE and Saudi Arabia, as well as in some Western countries. India often begins observing Ramadan a day later, depending on local moon sightings.

Can You Withdraw An FD Without A Will? What Banks Won’t Tell You Clearly

Fixed deposits are a trusted savings choice for many Indian families because they are simple and predictable. However, complications can arise when an FD holder passes away without leaving a will. In such situations, withdrawing money is not as straightforward as approaching the bank. The process involves legal checks, documentation, and time. Knowing the basics can help families manage the situation with less stress. What it means when there is no will When a person passes away without a will, it is legally called dying intestate. This means there are no written instructions on how their assets should be distributed. Banks cannot release FD proceeds based on verbal requests or family relationships alone. Instead, they must follow succession laws applicable to the deceased. These laws decide who the legal heirs are and how the money should be divided among them. Role of a succession certificate In most cases without a will, banks ask for a succession certificate. This is a legal document issued by a civil court that confirms who the rightful heirs are and authorises them to claim financial assets like fixed deposits. To obtain it, heirs must file a petition with details of the deceased, family members, and assets. The court verifies the information before issuing the certificate. While the process can take time, it is often necessary for the bank to release the funds. How nomination helps but has limits If the FD has a nominee, the process becomes simpler. A nominee is registered with the bank to receive the FD amount after the depositor’s death. Banks usually allow the nominee to withdraw the funds after submitting documents such as the death certificate and proof of identity. However, a nomination does not replace a will. If other legal heirs raise objections, the bank may still require additional legal documents before releasing the money. Documents banks usually require Banks typically ask for the FD receipt or account details, the depositor’s death certificate, and identity and address proof of the claimant. If there is no nominee, a succession certificate or similar legal document is required. In some cases, affidavits or indemnity bonds from heirs may also be requested. While exact requirements vary, the goal is always to confirm the claimant’s legal right to the funds. Why delays happen and how to reduce them Delays usually occur because of court procedures and incomplete paperwork. Families can reduce delays by keeping financial records organised, ensuring documents are accurate, and checking bank requirements early. Prompt legal advice can also help speed up the process. Withdrawing a fixed deposit without a will is possible, but it involves extra steps. Clear documentation and legal verification are essential. While nomination helps, a will offer the smoothest path for asset transfer. Planning ahead can save families time, effort, and emotional strain later.

Vijay Mallya Says He Cannot Leave UK, Bombay HC Says Hearing Depends On Return

Former liquor baron Vijay Mallya has told the Bombay High Court that he is unable to indicate when he will return to India, stating that court orders passed in England currently prevent him from leaving the country. Appearing before the court through counsel on Wednesday, Mallya informed the bench that restrictions imposed by UK courts bar his travel while legal proceedings against him continue overseas, reported News18. The submission comes in response to the High Court’s earlier observation that it would not proceed with hearing his petitions unless he physically returns to India. Court Seeks Clarity On Willingness To Return A division bench comprising Chief Justice Shree Chandrashekhar and Justice Gautam Ankhad reiterated that Mallya must clearly state whether he is willing to come back to India before the court considers his plea. “You (Mallya) have to come back…if you cannot come back then we cannot hear this plea," the court said. The bench emphasised that participation in Indian legal proceedings cannot be selective, particularly in matters concerning serious allegations. It observed that unless Mallya clarifies his intent to return, the court may be unable to entertain his challenge. While the court stopped short of dismissing his petitions outright, it made clear that further leniency would depend on a categorical response from him. “We may have to record that you are avoiding the process of the court. You cannot take advantage of the proceedings. In all fairness to you, we are not dismissing the petition but giving you another opportunity," the bench observed. Challenge To Fugitive Economic Offenders Act Mallya, 70, has been residing in the United Kingdom since 2016. He has filed two petitions before the Bombay High Court, one challenging the order declaring him a fugitive economic offender and another questioning the constitutional validity of the Fugitive Economic Offenders (FEO) Act, 2018. The FEO Act allows Indian authorities to confiscate properties of individuals declared fugitive economic offenders and restricts them from pursuing civil claims in Indian courts unless they submit to jurisdiction. Mallya has argued that he is entitled to be heard without being physically present in India. However, the bench indicated that such a position would first need to be formally stated in an affidavit. “When will you come? You (Mallya) have already argued that you are entitled to a hearing without your physical presence in a court of law. But first file an affidavit clearly stating so," Chief Justice Chandrashekhar said. The matter has now been posted for further hearing on February 18, with the court granting Mallya what it termed a final opportunity to clarify his stand. Proceedings In The UK Continue In his submission, Mallya cited ongoing legal proceedings in the United Kingdom as the reason for his inability to travel. According to his counsel, the court-imposed conditions there restrict his movement outside the country. Mallya faces multiple cases in India, including charges related to fraud and money laundering. Indian authorities have been pursuing his extradition for several years.
