The PPP chairman said that the spirit of Ramazan was to inculcate the values of tolerance and humility and urged people to imbibe and pursue this spirit even beyond the month of Ramazan.
“On this occasion, let us also remember the poor and the needy, all those who have laid down their lives for peace in the country and all victims of brutalities and injustice,” he said.
Meanwhile, in her message, PML-N vice president Maryam Nawaz said that after having stayed with her father in jail on the last Eidul Azha, this is the first Eid she will be spending without parents, adding that she was not allowed to meet her father.
