Aurangabad:Buying a goat in Aurangabad is proving to be prohibitive ahead of the Muslim festival of Eid-ul-Adha. Eid-ul-Adha will be celebrated on Wednesday. Traders have brought a variety of goats to the Chavani Bazaar. Ubed Khan, a goat seller, claims he owns the original breed of the Jamnapari Goat (a breed of goat originating from India and Bangladesh ) and
he has fixed a significantly high price for it. "This is a Jamnapari breed of
goat which is found in Hyderabad . I have owned this goat for ten months. It weighs
75 kilograms. I have kept the offer price at two lakh rupees," said Khan. Eid-ul-Adha
is an important festival in the Muslim calendar. The festival remembers Ibrahim's
willingness to sacrifice his own son when God ordered him to. Muslims all over
the world sacrifice a sheep or a goat as a reminder of that event.
