Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan and Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao extended their greetings to Muslim brethren on the eve of Eid-ul-Fitr.
In a message, the Governor said the festival signified the spirit of charity, brotherhood, compassion, love and peace. She wished that the holy occasion would usher in good health, prosperity and peace in the lives of people. The festival was a reminder of the purpose of life as ordained by God and that only through rigorous self-discipline, it would be possible to realise eternal life, she added, and called upon people to redeem the pledge of respecting the dignity of human being, sanctity of life and solemnity of all faiths.
In a separate message, the Chief Minister wished that Muslims would celebrate the festival with happiness. Regular fasting and other religious practices during the holy month would further improve discipline in lifestyle and ensure spiritual growth as well, he said.
