In his message, the Governor said that Eid-ul-Fitr festival is celebrated to commemorate the virtues enshrined in the fasting during the Holy month of Ramadan. After a month, where everyone is fasting and praying for the forgiveness of Allah for any sin that may have been committed, Eid-ul-Fitr comes as a day of rejoicing. Its importance lies in its collective celebration.
