Zardari urges people not to forget needy
KARACHI (Dunya News) - Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) co-chairperson Asif Ali Zardari on Wednesday asked all the stakeholders to collaborate in an effort to eradicate poverty from the country.
In his Eid message, Zardari said, "I would felicitate the Muslims throughout the world on the arrival of Eidul Azha. The lessons of sacrifice, endurance, and tolerance are taught to us on Eid. It is imperative that we remember those in need".
"We should remember our Kashmiri brothers, sisters, and children. The prayers will be offered for the country's valiant sons who are protecting it," Zardari maintained.
"We shall also honour our martyrs who sacrificied their lives in defence of country," he added.
- Eid in Nawabshah -
Zardari returned home after a three-day visit to Dubai to celebrate Eidul Azha in Nawabshah.
However, Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari will celebrate Eid in Dubai.
- Ready to sign charter of economy -
Last week, former president Asif Ali Zardari said the charter of economy was need of the hour.
Speaking to industralists, the PPP co-chairman underscored the nation's potential and dubbed the country as a "golden basket". The nation has been blessed with an abundance of resources by Allah Almighty, he added.
"I am willing to sign the charter of economy. Investors are becoming uneasy and moving their money abroad," Zardari added.
