Benazir Bhutto has sent Eid greetings to Muslims throughout the world, and particularly to her Pakistani brothers and sisters. In a statement released by Farhatullah Babar, she said: "Let us on this occasion also bow our heads in gratitude to Allah for blessing us with the bounties of the holy month of Ramazan.
"But amidst Eid celebrations this year people should not forget the tens of thousands of our sisters and brethren who perished in earthquake in Frontier and Azad Kashmir two years ago, as well as those who fell victims to senseless killings by terrorists and those who lost lives and suffered heavily during recent rains and floods."
She urged for caring and loving people among the Pakistanis, to step forward and help them in their hour of trial even as this hour of trial has been stretched and their miseries prolonged by corruption in the earthquake rehabilitation work.
"May Allah in His infinite mercy grant our supplications and guide us to imbibe the spirit of Ramazan throughout the year and to employ that spirit in rebuilding the lives of devastated people." She reminded every one that festive occasions have relevance only when blessings are genuinely shared with many. "On this day, therefore, let us redouble our efforts to alleviate the sufferings of those who are destitute and needy."
