For the first time, 1000-year-old Thazhathangady Juma Mosque in Kerala has opened its doors to women on Sunday April 24,2016

The move by mosque commitee has come following a sustained campaign by activists.

Breaking the 1000-year-old tradition, the mosque commitee has now allowed women to have a look at the inside of the mosque.

However, women will not be allowed to practice any rituals inside the mosque.
