Thursday, January 20, 2005

The President Dr. A.P.J. Kalam today greeted fellow citizens on the occasion of Idu’l Zuha, which is being celebrated tomorrow.

In his message the President has said, “On the auspicious occasion of Idu’l Zuha, I offer my greetings and good wishes to all my people in India and abroad and to all those who have performed Haj-Baitullah this year.

The festival of Idu’l Zuha represents the noble causes of love, sacrifice and submission to the will of God. Festivals are occasions for all of us to come forward in the service of humanity and to try and lessen the pain of people in need. This year Idu’l Zuha is also an opportunity to dedicate ourselves to the cause of service to those who are suffering from the natural calamity which hit some of our coastal areas recently”.
