Published December 6, 2002

ISLAMABAD, Dec 5 : Chairperson of the Pakistan Peoples Party, Benazir Bhutto, has extended greetings on Eidul Fitr to Muslims throughout the world, particularly to Pakistanis, on behalf of her party.

In her message she said: “Let us bow our heads in gratitude to Allah for blessing us with the bounties of the holy month of Ramazan. May Allah in His infinite mercy grant our supplications and guide us to imbibe the spirit of Ramazan throughout the year. “On this occasion let us also spare a thought for our less fortunate brethren, who squeezed by poverty and deprivation, are condemned to a life of misery and sufferings. A true joy can be felt only when it is widely and genuinely shared with many,” she said.
